This arrangement provides flexibility for fastening the
antenna/bracket assembly to your vehicle in a manner that
allows the antenna window (ANTENNA) to have a forward
looking view of the road ahead. The Small L Brackets (2) may
also be fastened to the antenna in different positions as shown
below:
Use one M3 x 20 bolt, washer and nut to fasten each Small L
Bracket to the antenna. Again, do not over tighten the screws.
In some situations it may be advantageous to use both the
Large L and Small L Brackets to install the antenna in a vehicle.
TIP: Use removable thread lock on the hardware to prevent
any bolts from backing out due to vibrations.
The layout of the holes on the large L bracket accommodates multiple antenna
mounting positions.
The small L brackets may be fastened to any of the four holes on the antenna

General Information
The laser/radar antenna is waterproof and designed to be
mounted at the front of your vehicle. Optimum mounting
location is near the license plate area. Since this module also
includes a Laser receiver, the front of this module needs to
“look” down the road with no obstructions. Radar signals will
pass through non-metallic materials such as fiberglass and
plastic, however, because of the laser receiver, there can be
no material blocking the receiver’s antenna window. If
obstruction cannot be avoided, consider the vertical
mounting option. Because the optimal location for mounting
the antenna varies by vehicle type, the hardware supplied is
designed to offer a wide variety of mounting options. We
suggest choosing the option that enables the antenna to be
securely fastened and provides the antenna window adequate
forward visibility.
NOTE: The “antenna window” is the bubble area on the
case. All references to antenna in this manual will be the
bubble area.
NOTE: Use of hardware that is not supplied or DRILLING
into the case will cause damage to the receiver and void
the warranty.
TIP: Use removable thread lock on the hardware to prevent
any bolts from backing out due to vibrations.
Antenna Mounting Brackets
There are two types of mounting brackets for the antenna:
Large L (1) and Small L (2). The Large L bracket fastens to 2 –
4 holes on the cover of the antenna. The Large L Bracket may
be fastened to the antenna in a variety of positions.
Do not drill into the receiver housing!
