Now what would be the right way? I think mine is the right way not half assed at all. I think drilling or hiding a non permanent wire sounds stupid, yet it may work and may look more clean. Having the radar detector plugged in like it suppost to be is the RIGHT WAY it is suppost to be hooked up especailly if live in a state where they are illegal, or if you have several cars you wanna use it at different times. I still dont get the need to hardwire something that is meant to not be hooked up that way, its like hardwiring all of the electronics in your house right to the fuse box there just isn't a need.

omg....i dont want to start another stupid debate, calm down
they do sell hardwire kits slick. escort makes and sells them. they arn't going to include it in everyone because that would cost them more, and they'd loose profit. i never said drill into the car, i just want to hide the wire so you can see it. yes, its the right way. ever buy a car wit a wire comming from below the dash up to the top of the dash, no, it looks out of place, tacky. it looks alot cleaner to have the wire hidden, not so out of place and "added on" and if you have 3 cars, you could always get hardwire kits for all 3 cars, that way your not messing around with cords or anything
yes it costs more, and takes more time, and some think its worth the effort.
do you live in a state where its illegal? doubt it, they are legal just about everywhere
