Am looking into a dash mount radar detector and would hope to tap power from the front camera housing behind the rear view mirror. I have heard on this site that power tapping from the mirror itself causes a brown out type problem yet the 2014s also have the wiring in place up front for the 2015 data recording camera. Has anyone used these (yellow-+12v, black-ground) yet to see if there is sufficient amperage available? I'm considering the Escort SmartRadar because of the receiver's small size which I may incorporate into the camera housing itself and extend the display cable down to the dash. I installed a Beltronics StiR system in my last car (Lotus Esprit) but it was quite the chore; one which I don't really want to repeat on the vette. Thanks, Brett
