Pop open the overhead console with the lights, there is a green wire with a white strip towards the front of the opening on the passenger side (it is a switched power so it turns on/off with the key) that you can tap into and run a short power cord between the headliner and windshield. Then you can mount the detector up high above the rear view mirror. Works great. It took me a total of about 5 minutes for each of my X5's. If you have a V1, the wire tap that comes with the kit works perfectly.
