Where To Mount Your Unit

You will get optimum performance from your detector if you Mount it at a
point approximately in the center of the vehicle, as low as possible on the
front windshield without obstructing the unit’s view of the road either to 
the front or rear. You can also mount it directly on the dashboard. 

The unit’s lens must not be blocked and the LaserEye should have a clear view
out the back window to allow 360° detection.

Radar and laser signals pass through glass but not through other materials
and objects. Objects that can block or weaken incoming signals include: 

Windshield wiper blades

Mirrored sun screens

Dark tinting at the top of the windshield

Heated windshields currently available on some vehicles 
(Instaclear for Ford, Electriclear for GM.) Consult your dealer 
to see if you have this option.

1.

Attach the rubber 
cups to the bracket.

2. Make sure the rubber cups and your windshield are clean.

3. Push the bracket firmly

onto the windshield.

4. Attach the detector to 

the bracket. Check the 
angle of the unit.

5. To adjust the angle if

necessary, gently push or
pull on the bracket to bend
it. DO NOT use the detector
to bend the bracket.

6. Plug the power cord 

into the detector.

7. Plug the cigarette lighter

adapter on the power 
cord into your vehicle’s
cigarette lighter.

8. You can temporarily remove the detector whenever you 

wish by depressing the bracket release button and sliding 
it off the bracket.
