The Whistler XTR-695 is easily installed onto the windshield by attaching the metal bracket supplied to the unit, and then pressing the two vacuum cups at the desired position on the windshield. We recommend mounting the detector in the middle of the windscreen, either up high next to the rear vision mirror or down low at the dash level, as long as it clears any physical objects such as the windscreen wipers.

Hi mate, i recently came across a new radar detector that is made in oz suited for oz conditions, called "Vengeance" - I was just wondering how this compares to the Valentine 1, as couldnt find any info on it. Would like to know your info on this and which one would be more suited for wa, ta.
It's an Asian manufactured radar detector (it's not made in Oz) imported solely by radars.com.au
I haven't tested one myself, so I cannot comment on it's performance.
But for a proven track record on being one of the best performers around, look at http://www.guysoflidar.com/radar-detector-test-august-2009/staged-real-world-tests.html
