Valentine One and tainted windshied
Hi all,

I plan to hardwire a V1 close to the rear view mirror.

But my 996 has a tainted-faded windshield (option code 567).

Do you know if the V1 will keep the same quality of detection behind the top area of the windshield ?

Thks.

From what I know, the detector should be mounted below the top part of the shaded windshield for best results.

Avoid metallic tint like the plague.
