INSTALLATION OF RADAR ANTENNA
General Information
The radar antenna is waterproof and designed to be mounted
at the front of your vehicle. In most vehicles the best mounting
location is directly below or behind the bumper. Other locations
which provide concealment and/or protection of the antenna
such as on the rear deck (next to the third brake light) may be
acceptable. Radar signals will pass through non-metallic materials
such as fiberglass and plastic, however, be sure to mount the
receiver away from any metal, as it will block the receiver's
antenna. Because the optimal location for mounting the
antenna varies by vehicle type, the hardware supplied is
designed to offer a wide variety of mounting options. We
suggest choosing the option that enables the antenna to be
securely fastened and provides the ANTENNA window adequate
rearward visibility.
NOTE: Use of hardware that is not supplied or DRILLING
into the case will cause damage to the receiver and void
the warranty.
Antenna Mounting Brackets
There are two types of mounting brackets for the antenna:
Large L (1) and Small L (2). The Large L bracket fastens to the
antenna using two or more screws (#6 x 3/4"). Slide the screw
through the hole on the flange of the antenna and then tighten
into the metal bracket (do not over tighten). The Large L
Bracket may be fastened to the antenna in a variety of
positions as shown on page 7.

INSTALLATION OF RADAR ANTENNA
The layout of holes on the large L Bracket accommodates multiple antenna
mounting positions.
This arrangement provides flexibility for fastening the antenna
/bracket assembly to your vehicle in a manner that allows the
antenna window (ANTENNA) to have a rearward looking view
of the road behind.
The Small L Brackets (2) may also be fastened to the antenna
in different positions as shown below:
The Small L Brackets may be fastened to any of the six holes on the antenna.
Use one #6 x 3/4" screw to fasten each Small L Bracket to the
antenna. Again, do not over tighten the screws.
In some situations it may be advantageous to use both the Large L
and Small L Brackets to install the antenna in a vehicle.
