I placed my remote box directly below the speedometer and tucked the telephone wire underneath the steering wheel and behind the center console.
Its a good spot because I can in one glance see the location of the radar and check against my current speed. THe gauge cover also covers any flashing lights that migh reflect off the windshield and attract the attention of Mr. Police man.

I had my Satellite Radio Tuner hard wired and it produced allot of alternator whine which became unbearable. I diconnectd the hardwiring and now use a two prong cigarette lighter for the V1 and the Sirius Tuner. I only get alternator whine now when the AC is on...weird.
