[QUOTE="JTRATX, post: 171172, member: 4906"] My first mod: Today was time to install my Valentine V1 radar detector. I had a mount from another car so I thought I'd try in the Raptor and it fit. The mount is a little loose, but doesn't move much and I'm OK with it. I don't have a sunroof and wanted to tap existing wires so I found the wire harness that plugs into the light and rear window switch provided the necessary connections. Just use a pry bar like the pic and the panel will pop right out. Blue wire is the 12v and the black wire with yellow stripe provided the ground. Pics of install: Pry the panel out gently: [ATTACH=full]189354[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]189355[/ATTACH] Tap the blue wire for 12V and black/yellow stripe for ground: [ATTACH=full]189356[/ATTACH] Use inline wire taps and turn key to make sure it powers off and on, there is lots of room to fit the extra wire, just tuck them up in the roof panel: [ATTACH=full]189357[/ATTACH] All put back together and ready for speeding: [ATTACH=full]189358[/ATTACH][COLOR="Silver"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 09:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 PM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR] Agreed silver is the best, hell all our cars are silver!
