When I used to have the original Cincinatti Microwave's Passport, I had 
tapped the wiring to the lighter. I then lead the wire underneath the 
dash, through the A-pillar and up to the roof. I mounted the radar 
detector near the rear view mirror. Basically, you would need 2 wire 
tappers and a very long wire with appropriate connector for radar 
detector at the end.
