Installed a Radar Detector in the S
March 21, 2009 5:38 pm AccessoriesI had this in my Acura a few years ago and figured I might as well install it in the S since it was just laying around. I’d like to think in all the years I had it in my Integra that it saved me at least a couple of times. Most of the time it’s only good for finding the entrance to the supermarket, but every now and then, particularly on the highway, it’ll warn me of an upcoming trap.
On the left side of the dash, it doesn’t interfere with anything and is within reach to adjust the audio or turn it off altogether if I want to. I removed the plastic housing on the A-pillar so that I could route the wires down under the dash and connect it to the ignition, so it automatically turns on when I start the car. I also used some braided wire housing to give it a clean look.

You always want to mount a radar detector as high as you can, on the windshield. The higher you can mount it, the further away it will pick up a signal. Mounting it like it’s pictured above is incorrect! They will know your speed even before that unit signals<=!

That is a very good location, I have mine mounted there as well. Sorry, but Gene is incorrect. The higher you mount it, the worse-off you will be. You want it as close to the dash as possible.
