the best windshield radar is the v1. The arrows are more important than the sensitivity.
my v1 has saved me quite a few times already.
dont just fixate on sensitivity, if your v1 goes off and shoes the threat is directly in front, and theres an exit right near you, your v1 just saved you.
follow what im sayin ?


or if your v1 goes off and you see the threat coming from behind.. well then you know what you need to do as well.

v1 also has a hard wiring "kit" that plugs into the obd2 port. thats how i installed mine. didnt have to tap into anything. all plug and play.
its $50 part that plugs into your obd2 port and lets you control when the v1 alerts you (in 5mph increments),
on my car, my v1 automatically turns on after 45mph. by "turns on" i mean audible beeps. its in silent mode under 45mph.
pretty sweet

I have redline on left side lower windshield with V1 on right sunvisor. The redline is more sensitive to all bands over the V1 which surprised me, thought V1 was the most sensitive, but isn't even close. Have switched locations and best sensitivity follows redline.
