Radar Detector Hardwire?
How do you hardwire into a 370Z? Can the warnings come through the NAV system like on the 'vette?
|
best option is tapping into the mirror.

I am familiar with the mirror tap, but I never used it. It seems like a good idea, though. Is there a reason why I would go to the trouble to tap this fuze? In the 'vette, all my radar warnings come through my HUD displace, any option for something like this on the 370Z using the DIC message center or something? |

It's actually more simple. You unplug one of the fuse and plug in the tap a fuse. Then add two fuses. In this instance, it is easier to change fuses and undo the wiring. Yeah just stuff the wire in the headliner, the a pillar will pop off, pull on the weather stripping and that will go down to the fuse box right by the dead pedal. :tiphat: |

I didn't know you needed to cut/solder/etc. to tap into the mirror? In my 'vette, you just plug it in piggybacking on top of the existing wires in the mirror plug. Do you have a link to the product that you used for your fuse install? |

but import's question is asking how to wire it up to show the warnings through the nav screen? :confused:
on my Z i just wired up my V1's power module to the fuse, mounted the module below the steering column (in b-surface so i dont hit it with my knee or something) and using the coil from the bottom of the steering column to above the cluster. |

I use the 12 volt outlet there are two wires behind it and its pretty simple to do.

Usually your radar/laser detector will come with both a cigarette lighter power plug and a direct 12V fused wire kit. For my V1 and OnStar mirror I tucked the 12v & GND wire up in the head liner by lowering it with a plastic pry tool. Then behind the curtain airbag and then to the 12V ignition on 10A fuse by clutch. Install time for the V1 and mirror took about 2 hours.
