Has anyone installed both of these? If so, where did you put them?
What is your experience with the ZR3?

Sounds like a great combo, the best at radar detection and laser blocking. I suspect that those who do both of these upgrades do so on vehicles considerably more expensive than MINIs. I V-1 but won't even consider a laser jammer on the MCS, as it's too expensive a solution for the moderate speeds I drive over the limit.

Yeah, it is expensive.

I was thinking of possibly trying to install the V-1 remote display + ZR3 display into a pod-like thingy to put on the dash beside the speedo (ordered nav) and tac. What do you think? I'd like to have the super integrated install of these devices.

I also want the aux gauges, so there many not be enough room I guess. I'd like to get oil temp or pressure and boost on the dash (ala. promini gauges) and volt/water temp below the console.

So, there a lot of stuff to install and little room to put it.
Oh what fun this is going to be...
