Years ago, I mounted a Fox radar/laser detector above the inside mirror on 
the pass. side, just below the roof line. A std suction cup bracket, with 
the rubber cups removed, simly slips in between the windshield trim & roof so 
no drilling holes. On a low car such as the Pantera, the higher the 
mounting, the longer the detection range. Later, I hard-wired it to the fuse panel 
so there were no dangling cords and it comes on with the ignition so no 
forgetting to turn it on. In this position, it takes up no useable windshield 
space- as verified by one policeman. Sometimes cops will use 'obstruction of 
the windshield'- a safety violation- as a means of penalizing you for daring 
to use one. Some detectors may be too bulky to fit up there. FWIW- J DeRyke
