"This aftermarket kit allows you to remotely mount your Bel STi radar for a completely hidden stealth installation"

 

STi remote kit (only) - does NOT include radar detector


Now you can mount your Bel STi driver (Bel XR) in the front of your car (behind the grill or bumper) for a completely stealth installation.  The radar detector is hidden up front, whilst the visual and audio alerts come back to the drivers cabin.  Several different options available. Note: picture shows Pro kit.

Package 1 Basic Kit - $199 AUD

 

Package 2 Pro Kit - $699 AUD

 

Availability: Out of Stock

 

 

Our Bel STi Remote kit is for those customers already operating a Bel STi radar detector, but would like to mount it remotely for a concealed, stealth installation.

 

We offer two remote kits:

 

Package 1 - Basic Kit

The basic kit includes the weatherproof enclosure to house your Bel STi in the front bumper of grill of your car, the necessary cables, and gives you visual (LED) alerts, as well as the normal tone/voice alerts using the existing external speaker that came with your Bel STi.

 

Components of the Basic STi Remote kit:

 

1 x Weatherproof aluminium enclosure and cables
1 x Interface / junction box
1 x Separate high-intensity LED light for dash mounting visual alerts
1 x Separate remote mute switch for mounting on dash / indicator stalk
1 x Master power on/off switch & separate kill switch

 

The basic remote kit will hide your STi radar detector, by mounting it within a weatherproof aluminium enclosure.  This enclosure can be mounted in the front grill or behind the bumper for extreme hidden applications.  Radar will still penetrate plastic or fiberglass bumpers, so as long as there is no metal in front of your bumper, the radar detector will still operate perfectly.  For laser detection however, in this scenario we recommend a separate laser system such as our laser parking sensors or Blinder laser system.  By mounting your STi radar detector using this remote kit, you no longer have to remove the detector off the windscreen every time you park your car, and risk it being stolen.  For areas that use the Multanova 6F speed camera, we recommend mounting vertically as shown in the picture.

 

We've also upgraded the standard LED warning light to a remote mounted high intensity LED light, that is mounted discretely in your dash, or can even be mounted in your instrument cluster like the K40 systems.  Even with the audio alerts muted, turned off, or drowned out by loud music, the bright LED will continue alert.

 

Audible alerts (with voice identification) come from your existing remote/external speaker that is mounted discretely under your dash.  The tone alerts can be muted with the supplied remote external mute button, that is designed for discrete installation behind your indicator or windscreen wiper lever.

 

 

The kit also includes a master on/off switch, supplying power to the radar detector, as well as a "kill switch".  The kill switch operates independently of the on/off switch, which on activation, renders the system completely inoperable - in times of extreme scrutiny.

 

Overall the basic package makes for a simple, discrete, hidden installation that keeps suction cups marks off your windscreen and relieves you from hiding your detector each time you park the car.

 

Package 2 - Pro Kit

The Pro kit is an upgrade on the basic remote kit, which now adds wireless & GPS fixed speed/red light camera alerts to your system.  Controlled by the Cheetah GPS mirror, you now have a complete package that not only detects mobile radar & laser, but also FIXED speed cameras and red light cameras - something a radar detector on its own cannot do.

 

All the radar detector's alerts (including voice alerts) are transmitted wirelessly to the GPS mirror.  Combining the Cheetah GPS Mirror and the STi radar detector gives you full protection from mobile AND fixed speed cameras, radar, laser, as well as safety warning messages such as accident black spots, over speed warning reminders, rescue me co-ordinates and red light camera intersection warnings

 

 

Furthermore, the Cheetah GPS mirror features "stealth speed" which is a speed limit you set, that will automatically mute the STi's tone alerts.  For example, you could set your "stealth speed" to 60km/h.  This will silence any alert from the radar detector if you are driving below 60km/h.  Increase your speed over your "Stealth speed" and now your radar detector alerts are heard as normal. (see video below) This will make for a much quieter ride in the city where your radar detector would normally false alarm at all the automatic door openers.

 

Components of the Pro STi Remote kit:

 

1 x Weatherproof aluminium enclosure and cables
1 x Cheetah GPS / Bluetooth mirror
1 x STi / Cheetah Bluetooth interface
1 x Instructions, mounting kits & power cords for above

GPS Mirror
This video demonstrates the safety aspects
of the GPS mirror, which can operate
independently of the radar detector. You
can receive voice alerts for accident
black spots ahead, over-speed reminders,
fixed speed and red light cameras ahead,
and other dangerous intersections.

 

GPS Mirror

This video shows the integration of the GPS
Mirror with your radar detector. You can pre
-set your speed limit threshold, below which
any alerts from the radar detector are
automatically muted. This makes for a much
quieter ride in the city. Drive above the
threshold, and you now hear your radar
detector's alerts (through the mirror).

INSTALLATION

 

Installing the radar detector:

 

Both the Basic & Pro remote kits require the STi radar detector to be installed either behind the grill, or in behind the front  bumper.  Click on the picture to the left to see an example installation of the radar behind the bumper (bumper removed for photograph).  In this method, the box cannot be seen unless the bumper is removed.

 

The basic remote kit requires running the cable from the front box to the supplied junction box which can be mounted anywhere behind the dashboard or glove box.  From here, the junction box connects to power, the high intensity LED warning light and the remote mute switch.

 

The Pro remote package is much simpler to install, as the alerts are wirelessly transmitted to the GPS mirror via the radar detector interface..

 

Installing the GPS mirror in the Pro package:

The spring loaded adjustable clips make it easy to fit over 99% of standard factory mirrors on the market.  The power cord can be hard wired or simply plugged into your cars cigarette lighter socket.  One of the first things you'll notice about the mirror is its size.  It is slightly larger than most factory mirrors, partially for cosmetic reasons to cover your original mirror, but mostly for safety reasons.  It's a wide angle mirror which greatly increases your rear vision, and helps to eliminate blind spots on many cars.  93% of customers prefer the specialized anti-glare coating to their original dimming mirror, reporting better night vision.
