370z Base Coupe radar detector wiring

@kenchan, I also have the base rear view mirror. Are the features of the gentex really worth the 260$?

I think so. you can also get ones without compass for $200, ones with only selfdimming for even less.

Check amazon search gentex

I just installed a gentex 453 that I got ebay. I bought the wiring kit as well and the passport hardwire kit for my radar detector. The little black piece that hides the wires behind the mirror is available on ebay as well. I used two add-a-circuits from autozone and plugged them into the ciglighter fuse for ignition and the dome fuse for constant, grounding to a bolt by the fuse box. Then just run the wire along the pillar, just tuck it in near the weather stripping, then run along the headliner. I just spliced the radar detector wire into the mirror power lines and I was finished.
