The New Ride

Well I figured it was time to put up some pictures of the Tahoe. So far I have only done limited modifications. I installed my Alpine 9813, and made it still work with the factory steering wheel controls/door chimes. I also got the front windows tinted and added my Escort radar detector.

they make a hard-wire kit for that escort. i have it myself. so that way, you can run the wire up the A pillar and put the radar in the upper left corner of the windshield. makes it not so obvious and may even save u from getting pulled over. cops around this area are usually fairly lenient if you dont have a radar detector. if you do, they will pull you over for 5 over.. its gay. but yea, the hard-wire kit is nice. plus it looks alot cleaner. i can take pics if you want to see what it *may* look like. u can get the kit from tweeter or cartoys.

i have had it up there for a long while now. and i had it on the windshield (like in ur Z) and i havent noticed a different. Mine is also behind a strip of 5% limo. I have it tinted up there. I like to put it there because its not seen from the outside and i dont have to take it down when i park my car. which i did before. its a 350 dollar piece of equipment, so u can bet that i hid it. now, i dont worry about it. and since there isnt any kind of wire hanging, its not seen. the kit is about 25 bucks and its got long wires. comes with a mute button that u can put somewhere (like with velcro on top of your steering wheel cover where the hazard lights button is). and if you get pulled over, u can disconnect it really quick, push the wire behind the headlines, throw the radar detector in the back, and BAM,you dont have a radar detector anymore :shifty: LOL. i can take pics if u want.
