My V1 remote is mounted under the dash by my right knee so I can see it looking down through the steering wheel. It is unobtrusive yet also shaded so no problems on bright days. The mute button isn't too awkward although I am going to add a dash switch to turn it on and off (it will always come on with the ignition but I'll be able to overide it).

The power comes from the becker harness behind the console, the actual V1 is wired around the windshield frame to the mirror. As I don't need to see the actual V1 it is mounted so I can only just see it, but the rear facing radar is unobstructed.

My V1 switch is coming along, as are the James Bond switches for OBC, Spoiler and Garage door opener!
