Default Blue Escort Passport 9500I install

Just got my 1st pictures up of my install. Just wanted to share.

I had a problem with mounting to the dots above RVM so i made a plexi glass cut out and used heavy double sided tape. I figured it looked cleaner and would do the least restriction of the GPS signal. I also have the external amplified speaker plugged into the headphone jack with a special clip to hold the wires out of the way.



I have the 9500I hard wired high to the left of the RVM 1/2 under the tint strip so its pretty stealthy if your not using a flash (the one below is an 8500).




I took apart the hard wire smart cord and drilled 3 holes into a blank switch spot, then covered with a black rubber peace to dim the buttons (they were too bright). It also helped make the mute button more flush. I have a new cover im working on that will have a small kill switch for a blue hard wire smart cord.



This is a view from the other side, you can see the heavy duty wax tape that prevents the 9500I from squeaking against the plexi glass.
