Thanks to the great commonwealth of Virginia, radar detectors aren’t legal here. But, GLWS.

Aren't they not legal in most states? Just like the speeding that they're helping you perform..

They are legal in every state EXCEPT Virginia.

VA and DC are the only areas that I believe they are illegal in.

I'm selling all of this stuff as a bundle:
Valentine One
Valentine One Bluetooth adapter (V1 connect LE)
Blendmount Standard Series

All together this stuff is $550 new. It's been used only in the SS for two years, never moved between vehicles and saved my ass several times.

DFD member price: $400 shipped via UPS with tracking.
So what are you going to do now that you're driving a cop magnet?

That is true. Except this sign is right after you enter VA from DC

I'd just install it in the Vulva.

That's the backup option though the wife doesn't speed.
But you do, and you drive it. I would have considered buying this a couple of months ago, I think the V1 is still the best looking and easist to read detector out there. I bought the Escort 360 a couple of weeks ago, it's in the box I haven't had time to jack with it. (V1 patent on arrows finally ran out, the Escort has arrows now.) It also has bluetooth to hook up to your phone. It is supplementing my old 9500ix, which has worked well but it now falses on way too much BSM, etc. I'm just going to throw the 9500 in the brahhoe. I have three cars with three Escort blendmounts, so I'm kind of locked in there.

With all due respect to frugality, I'd install the blendmount in the Vulva, and put the V1 in the case for travel (yes, I bring a detector on trips if appropriate) or the Vulva glovebox. You just spend $75K on an Alfa Romeo, you don't need the $400 and a RD is handy thing to have around. Then look into your remote mount options on the Alfa. Would not be driving a bright red 500hp car naked.

Good advice is good. This car gets fast, fast.
I bet.
