Easy hard-wire radar detector on gen 2 Solara - Pics added
I just added new pics and a short how to to my web site. I hope someone finds it useful.
I decided to mount the detector up high after reading some of the info on the ValentineOne website, they claim that it helps laser detection. I like because it keeps it out of sight from people.
Anyhow, this is one piece of cake of an install and it will get rid of the ugly wires hanging infront of the nice silver Solara dashboard.

Just place your wire where the red dotted line is and run it to the fuse box, the wire can be slid into the panel grooves with your fingers or a standard screwdriver for the corners. I used the fuse for the lighter to make my conection, this way the radar detector will turn off with the car ignition.
