No, this is not another "which radar detector is better" thread. I already have an escort 8500 and I'm happy.

My question is around the installation in my new LS. In my C6 vert, I have the invisicord (www.invisicord.com) for supplying power to the unit.

Anyone aware of anything similar for the new LS ?? How about mounting brackets ??

Any input appreciated.

 

I had the dealer hardwire mine. It took them 1.5 hours and they had to
take the lower dash apart. I wouldn't want to try this myself...

Dealer hardwired in both the '04 and '07 LS from the panel used to house the overhead lamps and sun roof. Took it out in less than 5 minutes, but had to have an apointment to re-install.

 

Do you guys have pictures? Also, does hardwire mean that a power outlet in the place you mount your system? Finally, what did it cost to do this?

I have the valentine one and would like to have this done...

Thanks!

 

As I remember........all paperwork is in my office:

$100.00 plus tax for the '04 and around $175.00 for the '07.

You can get them done for 1/3 - 1/2 the price at audio/stereo places, but I prefer to have all work done at the dealer. It's worth my piece of mind.

Like paying $1200.00 for 4 snows, mounted and balanced.
