Hardwire Power for Radar Detector - Front Fusebox?
Has anyone hardwired their radar detector into the front fusebox on the E70? I have it this way on my E90 and I really like it. I utilized an empty fuse slot for a switched power (KL15) and ran the fused power line to the radar detector. Was wondering if anyone knows an empty KL15 spot on the E70 front fuse box.
Thanks

I used something like this and tapped into the power at the mirror. I can't remember exactly what wires were 12v and ground, but it wasn't too hard to figure out with a multimeter.

damn, so nobody uses the front fusebox? I like this option because it provides a dedicated spot for it and it's installed with an inline fuse. Also when I tried using one of those backprobe-type setups on my E90 the pins kept falling out because they didn't fit right.
This is what I did in my E90 https://www.ebay.com/itm/UNIDEN-R7-R...D/113864873103
