Well here's some pics at last. The first one is what it looks like from the inside once I was done. The next two are what it looks like from the outside. I like it because you can barely see it from the outside.
Also I haven't noticed any problems with detection. Its been picking up X, K, Ka, VG2, etc within a decent amount of time to slow down.
See below for more instructions on mounting!
Ok, here's a couple pics that should help with the install...
First, there are these two screws that you must take out (right behind the hinge):
The pop off the light cover, using something like a razor blade or flat head screw driver. It comes off pretty easily without any scratching, etc. Once the cover is off, there is one more screw next to the light bulb.
Ok, for the rest of it, I didn't get a chance to unscrew everything and take more pics, but its pretty self explanatory. (If you want pics of the inside I can take some...)
First you can unplug both the cord for the sunroof (if you have one) and the cord from the map light. They are connected to the plastic housing and there is a tab that you can push to disconnect it.
After that, cut the power cord to the radar to the desired length that you want (I left some extra just in case, and there is plenty of room to store the extra behind the housing). I spliced mine to the positive and negative going to the map light.
After that, you can easily poke the power cord through the front part of the headliner so that it pops out near the rear view mirror.
Finally, plug it in to the detector to make sure it works, plug back in the sunroof power cord and the map light power corad and screw everything back in, and that's it!
Oh and just a note, there is constant power to that map light, so when you turn the car off, you have to power off your radar detector. Its actually pretty nice because I just power it on when I need it, and so far I haven't forgotten to turn it off!
Good luck, and lemme know if you guys have any more questions.
