Remote Radar Detectors with Concealed Installation
The overwhelming majority of radar detectors mount the same way: suction cup the detector to
your windshield and plug it in the cigarette lighter. That situation is not ideal for some.
Some drivers would prefer a radar detector that integrates itself cleanly into the
vehicle, without dangling cords or extra gadgets hanging around. Drivers that spend time in
theft prone areas may prefer a model that installs more discretely to discourage theft.
Also, drivers that spend time in areas where radar detectors are illegal may want a more
discrete installation to keep from drawing unwanted attention from police.
Whatever your reason for needing a different type of radar detector, manufacturers have heard
your demands and offer several "remote radar detectors" that install discretely in a vehicle.
These models have a radar antenna that is typically mounted behind your grill and laser sensors
that mount on the front. These components connect to a small control panel that can be mounted
anywhere inside your vehicle. Professional installation is recommended for any remote radar
detector. Our recommended models are listed below.

The Whistler Pro 3450 is a more affordable remote radar detector. It is recommended for those that need a
discrete install, but are looking to keep costs down. The blue text display of this model is very nice, and
the text can be customized to flow in three different directions to accommodate any mounting location. The
Pro 3450 delivers sensivity similar to that of the
Whistler Pro 68 windshield
mount model. One drawback to the Pro 3450 is the laser module. Instead of sensors that mount on the front
of the vehicle, the Pro 3450 has a small laser receiver that is designed to mount on the windshield. Voice
alerts can be added by purchasing an optional voice
module.

The Cobra XRS-R10G is one of Cobras top models. The XRS-R10G is a modular concealed design that also has a GPS
locator with the AURA camera database to warn you of red light and speed cameras. The unit’s modular design is
made up of three components: the actual radar detector which should be mounted by the rearview mirror, the GPS
locator which mounts beside the detector, and a wireless IntelliLink ™ display/control panel which can be mounted
anywhere within the vehicle. This design allows you to discretely mount the display/control panel according to
where you can easily see and use it.
