Is that custom fabricated or can you just buy the mirror? How does this install work? I may be interested!
Thanks.

That's not a must ... if you're serious about a V1 mod, check this out:

Note: The mirror is simply sitting on the dash for demonstration.
I believe he's selling the mirror for $499. The best part is at 0:38 marker
Let me know if you're interested and I'll put you in touch with him
It's a great mod, especially in states (such as VA) where it's illegal to use a radar detector.

So far using this detector around the city and urban areas it is too noisy. All the freaking automatic doors and other radio waves are being detected as I suspected. I guess I won't be using it locally just on long road trips. I came close to throwing this thing out the window..
If this thing still beeps in numerous false alerts on my road trip to NC from NJ, I may return the V1 and get the passport 9500ix which would be good since they lock out all the false alarms by learning where they are via GPS. Had it for 4 or 5 days and already annoyed and reminded me why I never got radar detectors in the past.
Getting a bit of a buyers remorse.
