    Trying to hardwire my radar, need switched power source

    ^^ Yep, using an add-a-fuse is definitely the way to go for this job. It's how i've always hardwired anything because it's so quick and easy. The problem I had was finding a fuse in the passenger's side kick panel that wasn't constant power. I finally found one, so all is well now.

    Trying to hardwire my radar, need switched power source

    I FOUND IT! Problem finally solved. We spent a great deal of time messing with the fuse box, and the only switched fuse we could find is a 5A Stability Control Fuse in location 34. This fuse is off until you turn on the ignition with the key. I hope this helps somebody else looking for an easy...

    Continental extreme contact DWS??

    I just recently put a set of Hankook IceBear 245/45/18 snow/ice tires on my stock 18's for my winter setup. I also live about 35 miles north of chicago and these will come in handy. If that's all you are looking for is an all season, the DWS is arguably the best, longest lasting all season with...

    2012 GT Premium M6. These pics were taken the day after I picked it up last week, and spent 3 hours getting a thick coat of wax on it.

    Trying to hardwire my radar, need switched power source

    I did look in the manual, and I did try multiple fuses that should be switched with the ignition, but my radar always has constant power, it's very frustrating since this was such an easy process in all of my previous cars. I hope somebody here can give me a simple and straight answer, as I...

    Trying to hardwire my radar, need switched power source

    I know a detector will not work 100% of the time, nor did I ever claim they do. However, to say they do absolutely nothing is quite ignorant. Laser is gonna get you almost every time, but if I pick up a K or Ka band in traffic before an officer is even visible, I have plenty of time to slow...

    Trying to hardwire my radar, need switched power source

    Thanks for your input, but I have been using detectors for years, and I like them. Your response added absolutely no value to this thread, nor did it actually help me in any way. That is, unless you can tell me how I can tap into a switched power source. I am in no way giving you any...

    Trying to hardwire my radar, need switched power source

    As the title states, I have been trying to hardwire my radar detector in my '12 GT Premium using an add-a-fuse like i've done on all my other cars. Find a fuse that is turned on/off with the ignition key, plug it in, and you're done. Every fuse i've tried in the passenger side kick plate is...

    Continental extreme contact DWS??

    I had a set of DWS on my 2008 EvoX, and they were amazing both in winter and summer. They also had a high treadwear rating of about 540 or so, so they lasted like crazy, even with the aggressive suspension setup of the Evo. My Mom also had a set of DWS on her 2007 rwd CTS sport, and she could...
