Slim, to quote Dr. Drew, dude.....REALLY??
As far as I can tell, my Valentine is working fine. Saves my butt numerous times per week.
Where else am I supposed to mount it that is out of sunlight?? The mount that comes with it attaches to the windshield. Last time I checked, sunlight is able to finagle its way through the windshield.
Try mounting it somewhere in the dash like down in the pocket below the radio.....oh I did and that sucked. The signal strength was worthless, same thing happened to my buddy who did almost the same thing with his Beltronics unit. Must be something called a firewall and an engine block that gets in the way of things.
Mounting to the top of the dash = best signal strength & most importantly its legal.
