Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Ended up mounting it under the dash, finding a switched 12v supply and using a re-radiating antenna mounted outside, below/next to the center brake light - couldn't detect enough satellites on a cloudy day through the tinted rear screen...

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm thinking of purchasing a road Angel radar detector for my new porsche ..Have any of you guys used one ?..and if so where did you mount it? Donny J

POST 2Original post

Thats the GPS one right? Works ok on the dash but needs to be fixed solid. Ended up mounting it under the dash, finding a switched 12v supply and using a re-radiating antenna mounted outside, below/next to the center brake light - couldn't detect enough satellites on a cloudy day through the tinted rear screen... Works ok, spot on as far as camera locations and accident blackspots. Got the extras from their mail order, all arrived next day. Make sure you upload the data every few days, week or so, depends on driving habits I guess. I understand you can also connect a radar jammer as an input to alarm when its triggered. Watch out with the bizzies though if they stop you for that - a guy in the uk was recently prosecuted for using one. Good luck, Richard..
