That's a good idea Wanderer. I can make one of those myself!!

There should be a fused B+ (always hot) and a switched hot (to the key) in the 4 line cable that goes to the computer in the overhead console itself. I don't know if it would be a good idea to tap off of it though, as these are small lines.

I bought a 10 piece bag of male post crimp-on terminals at Radio Shack for $1.99 and wired mine into the auto dimming mirror. If it ever quits raining, I'll get some pics. It is nice to not have the cord running to the lighter and the detector coming on in the accessory position. Not it only posers up in the run condition.
The Radio Shack part number is 64-3095.

Can the overhead trip computers be installed pretty easy? Is the harness already run up to the headliner?

My $39 one from Walmart works great!! Saved me many times.
it's either a Cobra or Whistler, I can't remember.


I don't know about the overhead wiring being there.

Only powers the detector in the run position. SWEEEEEEEEEEEET!
