Does anyone have any recommendations for radar detectors? I am vaguely familiar with Escort and Valentine One systems from 8-10 years ago, but not clear on what has improved since they have been released and what the best value is. I am open to hardwiring the radar into the fuse box for the sake of cleaner wiring, but not sure if anyone has had experience with this yet, and how people have tucked the wiring into the interior trim panels. This radar will stay in the car, so there is no need for it to be portable for use in other vehicles..

Any thoughts on this are greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.
. I’ve been using radar detectors for easily 40 years and escort for the past 10. I wouldn’t drive without it. For the most part you don’t need to spend much. $100 to $500 won’t make that much difference in protection. Go out and get one and then drive like you stole it.
