I think he just mounts his high on the windshield above the rear view mirror (driver side). It's almost impossible to see from outside the car (window or rear). I mount mine in the same place but on the passenger side. I also keep my display off so my only notifications are noise and the LED on the smartwire.

Yeah, if I was in a coupe, I would probably just take that route as well, but with a roadster, the cop would have to be trying not to see it. While I have you, perhaps you could give me some data on a hypothesis that I have: since detector use is illegal in Virgina, the police aren't working as much to game the detectors as they would in other areas. By this I mean, more reliant on laser or instant on, hiding in more frequency saturated areas like the shopping centers, etc in order to hide their radar. Any experience that causes you to lean one way or another?
