I highly recommend this DIY - it is the best if you want that clean and tight look although a little pricey. Like an earlier post, I went with the Escort 9500 after hours upon hours of research. This detector is boss. GPS learning is a strong feature. Check out the item at autoanything since they are always producing coupons, especially for black Friday where you can approach half off this detector.
Their new model has a lot of bad reviews out there, perhaps need a few years to work the bugs out. The 9500 has firmware update and speed camera ability. Seriously, you will not be disappointed. She even caught a laser the other day in a neighborhood zone. Not much you can do at that point, but nice to know it's sharp.
Bonus: you can still manage a windshield sun deflector with little bend-age around the mount. And when mounted like this, your rearview blocks direct sunlight to the unit = longer life.
Has saved me about a dozen tickets so far this year, they haven't got me yet.
