Specific Radar Thread/Question
I know there is a Long radar detector thread... But I wanted some specific opinions on some things...
I have a Bel Vector 985 and am either going to upgrade or by a cord to hard the bel vector.
1. I am looking at a stealth hidden radar detector(Id prefer but high price). The ones with the mounted sensors in the front license and rear license and the Display hidden around the speedo or dash or wherever... examples passport SR7 and the Bel Vector 975R Radar Detector... Price is high on those compared to regular ones also...
Does anyone have any experience with these or comments? any advice on these will be helpful
2. If I dont go that route I am looking at the Valentine1 or the passport 8500 x50. What are the thoughts on these?
3. Option 3...Keep my bel vector 985... it doesnt have a phone jack input... Where can I find a wire to hard wire it?
Thanks for the help in advance... questions are in bold

Its sickening to plop down $400 on a radar, but its worth it in this case. The upgrade program they have is also a very big plus.

I've owned the normal 8500 along with 2 previous Escorts before that. Some of my closest friends own the 8500 X50. We all switched to the V1 and none of us regret it one bit. To me, the V1 wins hands down. Nothing like having arrows to tell you where the radar is coming from (although I will give Escort a thumbs up for the digital display). ValentineOne is an excellent company to deal with. I had a slight problem with my windshield mount and they sent out a replacement the same day, no questions asked.

But for 400 bones... Id like to throw some to it and get the hidden ones where you mount the sensors in the grille and the rear license plate...
If i get a Normal one it will be either the Beltronics Bel RX65 Pro or the Val1... The bel has everything and its half the money of the Val1. This is almost has hard as my sub/amp/box combo choice... at least there fun decisions

V1 all the way. The arrows and long distance detection are the best features of the V1.
