The Direct Wire SmartPlug and our Gray Radar Detector Visor Holder are packaged to support your Passport 9500ix radar detector, Escort 9500ci, Escort Redline, Bel STi Driver, Bel GX65, Bel RX65, Passport 8500 X50, Passport Solo 2 and all Bel Vector radar detectors.
VISOR HOLDER INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
Place the (black or gray) visor holder on the visor by running the two elastic bands over the top of the visor, centering the visor holder on the visor. The visor should be in the up position and when the holder is properly installed the two pockets are below the sun visor, facing downward. Use a cloth or foam above the visor to keep it level. The Velcro lid can fold over the radar detector to completely hide it, using voice alerts only; or you can locate the Velcro lid on top of the radar detector so that you can see the display. Run the power cord directly up to the cloth header at the top of the windshield. The Visor holder will hold the Valentine One, Passport 9500ix, Escort Redline, Bel STi Driver, Bel RX65. It also holds the radar module of the Bel STiR Plus, Escort 9500ci, Escort 8500ci, Passport Qi45 to name a few. It will hold your insurance papers and a pen, as you can see there is a pen holder up there too. The two elastic straps are wide and strong for long lasting support.
LONG DIRECT POWER CORD INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
Run the power cord with the telephone jack connector (RJ11) into the side hole of either pocket of the VISOR HOLDER where you wish to hold the detector. Holding the radar detector in your hand outside of the visor holder, plug into the radar detector. Gently slide the radar detector into the pocket, such that the power cord is not cramped on the inside. The Bel STiR and Passport 9500ci power cord comes out the back of the detector, rather then the right or left side of the detector.
Place your fingers up where the cloth header meets the windshield. There is a slight opening where the cloth header meets the windshield. Gently stuff the power cord in between the header and the glass windshield as you go across the windshield top. Run the power cord down the A pillar on the right or left side of the windshield. The A Pillar is the metal frame between your door and windshield. Stuff the power cord into the creases so that it is unseen. Take time and do it right. At the bottom of the A Pillar bring the power cord back along the dash top in the creases, stuffing the cable into the creases. Again take your time and do it the way you want to see it done. If you are running the BELTRONICS STiR or Escort 9500ci power cord, it has a connector in between the two cords. You can hide it as you wish or cut the connector out and splice the colored wires for one continuous cable. If you do not know how to properly do this, call a local installer.
As you approach the door with the cable, drop the cable down the dash side. Take a look at the weather grommet of the inner door frame by the dash. It is designed to keep water out, and you can run the power cord down the weather strip on the side closest to the dash. Don't run the power cord over the weather strip, which could allow water to get inside the vehicle. At the bottom of the dash, run the power cord down under the dash, and then up inside such that the wire never hangs down below the dash. Run it to the 12 volt power source that you wish to use, (Cigarette power Adaptor or the fuse box). If the fuse box, plug 12 volt lead of the power Cord to the appropriate 12 Volt accessory. The newer cars run CANBUS power systems and there are specific points where you can connect. Usually the power going to the Cigarette Lighter is the safest, but verify first.
CIGARETTE POWER PLUG INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
If you are using our special CIGARETTE POWER PLUG: The Cigarette Plug has as a red knob (12 Volts), and a black knob (Ground). The Long Direct Power Cord has a black lead (ground), and a black lead with a red stripe (12 Volts). Cut the female connector off and the round ground lug off both ends of the cable. Strip the wire back 1/2", twist the wire, and double the wire over. Unscrew the Cigarette plug (red and black) knobs until you see the thru hole. Slip the black wire thru the black knob hole and black/red stripe wire thru the red knob thru hole, and tighten enough to hold the wire but not enough to break the wire. If Cigarette Plug, simply plug in the CIG PLUG adaptor, and you are ready to go.
Hide your radar detector up on the windshield visor and use the Direct Wire, SmartPlug cable, 12 feet long to wrap the cable around the windshield to hide it from view. The Direct Wire SmartPlug may be a Passport or Beltronics Smartcord, both which are identical in operation supporting all Bel and Escort radar detectors.
Your radar detector sits in a hidden pocket under the visor, and can not fall from the windshield with a defective vacuum suction cup, while the cable is hidden wrapped around the windshield; no power cables hang down from the windshield, pointing out your radar detector.
If you are having problems with the vacuum suction cup releasing from the windshield, this combination is perfect for you. The radar detector visor holder is the perfect solution to protect your radar detector from damage and to keep it hidden out of site as people walk or drive by your vehicle.
The Radar Detector Visor Holder and 12 foot, Direct Wire SmartPlug combination provides these features:
1) Hide your radar detector up on the visor from view;
2) Locate your radar detector as high as possible in your windshield to give you increased Ka band police radar performance;
3) Protect your radar detector from falling off the windshield;
4) Wrap your radar detector's power cord around the windshield, hidden from view, and place the small modular unit anywhere in the cockpit.
The Radar Detector Visor Holder is also great for holding your insurance paperwork in a safe closed pocket on the visor. If you are concerned about police radar detector detectors, this visor holder accessory is superb for hiding your radar detector from view.
