I might order a 12" or make my own. My Passport 9500ix has the jack on the left side, so I'm limited to mounting right under the rearview mirror.
Did you order the special version for G's/Z's that have the thinner probes? If so, you still had to hammer them down? Just wondering since I need to order the cables and they're $5 cheaper than the invisicord "fused" cable.

If you know how to solder or crimp you can make your own.

Hey how is it a 30% discount? My total was $15.95 and discount coupon -$2.39. Subtotal came up to be 13.56. Looks like its a 10% discount rather than 20%..

^The OP had posted this coupon over 4 years ago so there's a good chance they may have reduced the discount rate.

I ordered a stealth cord for my 2010 almost 2 years ago. I had no problem pushing the probes into the back of the electrical connectors.
If I recall they had a note section where you ordered so I stated that the 2010 G37 needed the thinner probes, since it was mentioned in a topic on this forum before I ordered.
I ordered a cord that was 2" longer then I measured so I could wrap it once around the mirror mount. I did this because I have had my detectors loosen and fall from the windshield and I didn't want the detector to ding an interior part. The detector has come loose about 4 times since then but it just hangs from the cord and doesn't fall into the car.

Nice tip. Wish I knew about that before I ordered y 8" stealth cord. Although I plan on eventually ordering a blendmount for my 9500ix.

Hey where did you make the order for Stealthcord?
I went into the website on the first page, and couldn't locate anything.

OK for my 2009 Sedan since no one seems to answer this.

2 Wires on Invisicor or whatever (One's a ground, one is POWER, (12Volt)

The black wire on the Invisicord wedges into the same slot as the Black wire from the wiring harness that is clipped on the rearview mirror, the RED Invisord wire wedges into the same space as the BFROWN wire is plugged into (Brown Wire=12V ON when start car, or when turn key to ON)

That's it. I'm awesome!

You're all going to have to use InvisiCord
StealthCord isn't in business anymore.
