I never bought the concealed box cuz it was very large still, however I would so buy this if I bought a V1 again. Also with a mute button/mode button to mount anywhere, very pimp!! :tup: Anybody on the board have a modified box like this one? ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/03.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/03.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/65237534.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/65237534.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/65478164.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/65478164.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/IMG_8971.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/IMG_8971.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/IMG_8973.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/IMG_8973.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/7104936.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/7104936.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/10.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/10.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/97582954.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/97582954.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/8931867.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/8931867.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/18597034.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/18597034.jpg) ![http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/4753467834.jpg](http://www.audimods.com/mods/V1radarMods/4753467834.jpg) ---

Personally, I like the rear-view mirror version; I’ve seen that done with other things and once I saw Josh’s I figured I was right about wanting it there. It’s just one of many projects for the Bird as it gets resurected. ---

all he did was take it out of teh box and relocate the RJ connector… it seems like very little work. the hardest part would be ‘potting’ (epoxying) it so that it does not make a mess. ---

with such slick mounting locations, such as behind the steering wheel / on the gage cluster, it’s got to be impossible to hit the mute button. … … and if you have POP you are hitting the mute button every 4 seconds. :ham: ---
