The V1 has to have a clear view through the front and rear window, for the arrows to work correctly. If you place it low, the radar antenna will still work, but the arrows (and perhaps the counter) will not be accurate. You should mount it high on the windshield, but make sure it's not being abstracted by any blue tinting, or metal objects, or your rear-view mirror.

The V1 is by far the best RD in the market. I have 2 of them, one in each car. They've saved me a lot of money, and stay reliable through the years, unlike BEL, which stop working after 1 year because their filter burns out (I've had 3).

The V1 is worth every cent. POP isn't that important. Read Mike V's post on POP. He thinks that all of us should write letters to abolish the POP guns from the streets. He actually hates it and says that no radar detector, can accurately detect it, and that no POP gun can accurately measure someone's speed. The burst is too short...
