Horizontal Or Vertical Mounting Of Antenna
The antenna can be attached to the vehicle in a horizontal or
vertical position, or at any angle between these two points.
Select the position that allows you to fasten the antenna to
your vehicle in the most secure manner.
N N o o t t e e : : When choosing a mounting location, remember that in
order for the built-in laser receiver to detect signals it needs an
unobstructed view down the road. This means that the unit can
not be mounted behind plastic and can not be installed in a
vertical manner. This is not an issue because, if the installation
requires a vertical attachment, we have supplied another laser
antenna.

Installation of Laser-Radar Antenna
Installing Using Dual Lock Fasteners
The laser/radar antenna as well as the control panel can be
installed using the dual lock fasteners. Clean the selected area
with rubbing alcohol to remove and waxes or polishes before
installing the module. This will prep the area so the adhesive
will have a clean surface to stick to.
Horizontal Mounting
When mounting the antenna in a horizontal position (or on an
angle between), remember to keep the ANTENNA window as
close to perpendicular as possible to the road surface
(ANTENNA window should not be angled up toward the sky or
down toward the road surface).
Mounting Vertical (with 45º Reflector)
For vehicles that do not have sufficient clearance or access
(about 5") to mount the antenna in a horizontal position, the
45º reflector should be used.
The 45º Reflector is attached to the antenna with at least two
screws. Place the screws through the holes on the reflector
bracket and then tighten into the antenna (do not over tighten).
