Hard wired
Does anyone have their radar detector hard wired to the rear view mirror and not down to the BCM area? If so please advise as to which wires to pick up. Thanks in advance.

Re: Hard wired (Grumpy)
I went the BCM area route. It wasn't that hard and wouldn't show any more exposed wiring than wiring to the mirror. Besides, there is wiring provided at the fuse box specifically for accessories that is on its own fuse and thus eliminating the need to cut/splice into wiring that wasn't meant to be cut into.

I hope someone has done this and answers this post. If not, I'll give the hardwire-to-mirror a go myself, but I hate being a pioneer.

Re: Hard wired (wallstAL)
I went the BCM area route also. Had my mechanic solder for me as he does the prettiest soldering. Pulled the A pillar palstic off and it just doesn't quite line up and look at the othe rside. what's the correct way to reattach the plastic? gotta say 'tho you can't see the thing if you don't know whereto look......
