The manufacturer of the detector I own recommends mounting the detector as low on the windshield as possible (being careful not to block signals by mounting behind the windshield wipers) in order to take advantage of the "bounce" of radar/laser guns off the hood. I've found this mounting advice to be valid, as I gain some range from this method. I've tried it high and low and found low to be more effective. Just my experience.

Vel 1 has problems as well. I have friends who got tickets up his butt even with the vel 1. I have the bel vector 95. I have been happy with mine.
Anyways, to cut it short, I have mine setup on the driver side suction cups. but I wired mine around so that the cables do not pull it down.
