Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent addition to the Passport.
Works perfectly. Glad I bought it. For the best installation I recommend professsional installation. Mine is adjacent to my shifter & is super-convenient to use this way. It looks almost as if it's original equipment.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mounting the control/mute button
I mounted the control/mute button on my steering wheel dash, behind the steering wheel. It is in a great place. All the wires were tucked away by the local car stereo shop.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another use for this product
I bought two of these to add radar detectors to my motorcycles. I didn't like the idea of the coiled power cord and with the detector mounted on the RH handlebar, it was not in my direct line of sight. This unit is made for automobiles but the premise is exactly the same. Mount the unit on the dash directly in front of you & the detector can be mounted whereever it is the most efficient. No coiled power cords to dangle about.

I did have to shorten the cord to the unit and put a new RJ11 plug on it, but that is a simple task. There are several alternatives for motorcycles to make the alert warning more visible. All are much more expensive and some are downright inconvenient to use. This is a simple, elegant solution that works very well. Just unplug the unit & change to another bike or your car. The adapter stays on the vehicle & the cord can be safely tucked out of the way.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An awesome solution to the stock problem
If you want to use your Escort in multiple cars this is the way to go. Not only does it allow you to hardwire your passport but it frees up the wires from the factory if you want to use in another vehicle.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Does what it's supposed to
This was the easiest thing I've wired in my car - pretty much plug and play. You just need to find a +12 accessory wire and snap it on with the supplied clamp. It works exactly as the coiled lighter one does, but can be better concealed.

$30 for a wire is pretty ridiculous, and the same thing can be done with a phone wire for less than $5, but it's a quality product.
