Default 2k3 Accord Valentine 1 Radar install tips

Getting ready to hardwire my V1 into my accord, and was wondering if anybody had tips on which wire to tap into? Maybe save me some time digging with a voltmeter

lighter wire right behind the lighter. Or radio wire will work as well. The question is, do you want it on at all times, or shut off with your car. Make sure you wire accordingly.

I'd wire it right to your fuse box.. or back of radio

I want it to only be on when the ignition is on. I was wondering if there was a switched power lead in the headliner somewhere for convenience. Thanks for the help

You didn't get the cigarette lighter adapter so you can just plug it in and go? My v1 is coming tomorrow and I figured this is how I would do it. I'm not going to leave a 400 dollar piece of equipment in my car for some jackass to steal...
