    Anyone Hardwire a Radar Detector yet?

    Hello all, I just bought a 2012 4Runner and wanted to hardwire my V1, and my efforts have been unsuccessful. I used a paint can opener to run the wire under the headliner, then under the top of the A pillar under the plastic air bag cover, under the seal to the door, then down to the fuse box...
