Passport 8500 hardwire

Hey,

I just purchased a passport 8500 and the regular hardwire (not smartcord hardwire) cord with it from the online escort store. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with the install of the hardwire cord on my 02 civic ex.

Thanks!

Well whats your question? It should be pretty straight forward-one wire to a + source and one wire to a - source. If you want to switch it on with the car automatically, use a relay and tap an ignition source.

There should be directions included.

If your radar detector has a cigarette lighter plug, cut it off and BAM you have your + and - wires

^^ thats not advisable with the Passport 8500 since the cig lighter plug has buttons on it to controll the detector. Thats why they sell like a $20 hardwire kit for it.
