The pin broke rendering the kit unusable

The pin broke when inserted into the socket of my mirror. I ended up having to ditch the pin extension and add vampire clips instead.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Piggy bank price

Rear view mirror electrically operated

This is a must have for my V1 RD. The simple fact that I can install and pull power from the windshield area and not have to run wires to the dash is fantastic.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Negative present

Fits well, works well.

Power cord supplied with adapters with smaller insertion needles. My setup called for smaller needles. It was pretty easy to install. The cable worked fine. A little short but worked well.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • to be written later

The included plug adapters make a big difference

Great product. Works much better than competing products thanks to the included pin adapters. I had a hard time fitting the square pins but after using the adapters I found it much easier.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Not the best results

Good way to hide the radar

I like this method because it works well on my e46 m3 to hide the radar. If I've been pulled before and the cops spot a large cable, it's easier to spot. Now it's invisible so I don't mind being stopped to use it for more speed.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Almost never

Quality cable for fixed connection V1 to F32 mirror.

Initial quality seems good. Installs easily and works as promised if you know which pins to use and take your time to avoid damaging the connectors. It comes with smaller adapters that were necessary for my installation on the BMW F32.

Pros
  • Very good quality
Cons
  • No

good concept. Check your tension.

So I've used it successfully in the past. A great idea. Great time saver. The problem is that this time when I was figuring out which pins to plug into the mirror power harness, my multimeter showed my max output was about 10 volts (10.08-10.14). It wasn't enough to power my V1 Gen2 (although the specs said it required 6-35 volts?). My cigarette lighter put out about 14.4 volts and fired the V1 just fine. So it's not that this product is bad, but you'd better know what voltage is being supplied

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Some shortcomings
