Just got mine in, quicker than I though, but I was able to test the V1 and shade. With the V1 mounted using the mounting method in the pictures above I was unable to put on/off the shade. Though with three seconds of removing the V1 the shade was up and working, looks great, will give it a solid test tomorrow.

Yes, and the one I had before this, the thin paper one was just not cutting it. Tomorrow will be a day for a good test, hoping for some sunny weather.

i use mine at work, and although it is hot inside the car, it is cooler than without it and the tinted windows...

Same here, I checked on the website and it said about 2-3 weeks from order to delivery, six days later it was at my door. No notifications.

I honestly thought that would be a problem for me too as I've really had my Detectors tucked away on previous cars and don't like stuff hanging on the windshield.. Surprisingly it does not bother me at all, nor block much when cranking through the twisties.. They do make an adjustable model which would allow you to tuck the detector up closer to the mirror..
