Looks great!

Now your next project is the conceal display. There was a guy who etched V1 arrows on the rearview mirror. It was very neat. Too lazy to search.

Ixnay on the etched mirror display. The V1 display is totally concealed from view of other drivers or observors. This would not be the case with the mirror display.

You're right that the etched mirror isn't 100% concealed but then again, it's more concealed from the authorities if you get pulled over...

In illinois the radar detector isn't illegal. Is it in your state?

Not in Pennsylvania but if you ever get pulled over and a cop sees you have a detector, don't even think about the possibility of getting off with just a warning...
