Need Help installing Valentine V1 in a 2005 Honda Civic
 

I just got the valentine V1, I have absolutely no idea how to install it or where to even begin, and the instructions really don't help out much. If anyone has any suggestions, how-to's, or other websites that could help me out that would be awesome. If any of you have tips and have AIM/AOL my sn is Aslan817.

not sure... id asume ya jsut put it in the dash and wire it in...


but how loud are these units?

RE: Need Help installing Valentine V1 in a 2005 Honda Civic
 

it can be pretty loud, it has a volume knob on it so if you are listening to the music loud you can turn it up, and if the beep is just annoying you can turn it down. yea I have no idea how to install this thing and i really don't wanna pay to install it myself.

it should say how to in the manual.... i wouldnt think it would be that hard.... what a cig lighter plug and a suction cup mount for the unit?

RE: Need Help installing Valentine V1 in a 2005 Honda Civic
 

Im actually pissed because I spent $400 on the unit and it didnt even come with a cigarette outlet plug-in, that's like buying PS3 or Xbox 360 and it not coming with a controller

so if it comes with a suction cub then mount it below your rear view mirror that's the best place especially if your coming up a hill and the cops on the other side

if it has a hard wire kit and not a cigarette lighter then you'll have to hook it up by hardwiring it in your car , not hard on your civic

alright ill try it out tomorrow during the day and see if I can get it, I think i know what you are talking about cuz I hard wired my navi through there

RE: Need Help installing Valentine V1 in a 2005 Honda Civic
 

easiest place to wire it into would be the fuse box.... every vehicle always has a few empty slots. mine has 2 or 3 extra ports just conect a female spade terminal onto the spade male conections and use a inline fuse and jus run the wires where ever ya need to....
tho i just wired my radar dector into my cigerate lighter wires cause it already turns off with the ignition ;)

i just have it wired behind it to hide the wires.

yea I hate wires, is there anyway to like pop off the sidepaneling above the door so i can run the wire underneath there and have my radar on the visor? or is that like rediculously hard.

RE: Need Help installing Valentine V1 in a 2005 Honda Civic
 

yes there is you can take the A pillar off and run the wires behind that so from your visor to the A pillar to the side panel , make sure you place a fuse on it
