AL-Priority Radar Jammer and BlackVue DVR install

Little write up about my install. First of all, I highly recommend AL-Priority laser jammer. I only used one laser head on my 2er because the car is so small, and i do not use any detector because the system automatically warns and jams incoming laser signals. For DVR, Blackvue and Thinkware are really the best on the market and i prefer Blackvue DR650 because of its small size and i have it on all my other vehicles, so i am used to the user interface.

First off, here is the laser jammer unit. It's the smallest, light-weight and easy to mount but it has to be installed horizontally and level to the ground. I made a little spacer out of ABS board so it sit flat on the bumper, next to my go-pro mount.


running the wires: just loom and follow the factory wires and there are couple nipples at a gourmet next to the brake fluid reservoir on the firewall. You can poke thru it with a flat-head screwdriver from the cabin side.




Image showing the wire going thru the gourmet from inside the cabin, i also had another cable coming in for my JB4. lucky there are 2 factory holes available there.


here is where i got my power for the system: This delayed+12V ignition from the cigarette lighter plug provides enough power for the jammer, and there is a programmable delay on it. mine is set to 10 mins



I also hided the main module there under the cup-holder, and have the LED installed to the cup-holder so the flashes would catch my attention.



all these panels just pop right out. first open the armrest, then pop the side trim up and pull backward, then lift up the shiftier boot so you can get a good grip on the center panel and again, up and backward. at last there are 2 screws hold the cup-holder down.


Here is where i mounted the Multi-saver power module for my DVR. It's upside down inside the glove box. With this i can use my DVR as security cams without worrying it draining my battery.



running the camera wires up the passenger side A-pillar, make sure you have the wires run under the airbag, not on top, and *don't zip-tie it to the airbag.
carefully take apart the rear mirror win-shield housing from the center-seam, and have the wires run behind it.


After all devices are tested and working, put all the panels back. Here is a fairly clean install that took me 2.5 hours. (oh I have rear cam too, not pictured)
