We offer custom build OEM BMW Rear View mirrors with integrated Valentine One radar units.

The price is $550+ shipping to modify the rear view mirror and headrest (V1 main unit, V1 concealed display, rear view mirror, rear headrest - not included) .

Please contact us if you have any questions

Thank you,

To make sure that performance of the mounted into the rear headrest V1 unit wasn't affected, we decided to test it side by side:

Here is a video to compare Valentine 1 mounted into the rear headrest versus V1 unit mounted to the windshield.

I don't see where you have it mounted in the headrest. Am I missing something? Can you give a quick explaination on the eaziness of the install. Thank you.

You won't see the actual unit. This is the whole point of the system to be stealth and not visible.

It was mounted in the rear headrest like this



The installation process if pretty straight forward, you need to run the wires from the back to the front of the car and reinstall the rear view mirror.

There is no information as how to order one of these. Is this a DIY installation or does it require a pro?
