    No the lid closes with the hinge in both positions. Did a dry run first to make sure of that. Zip tied the wires nice and tight. I work in a high crime area so I did not want a new H/U or anything out in the open.....the whole install write up is on here.

    FYI Radar Detectors work best as high as possible in the windsheild. Thats according to Alex Roy, the man who drove from NY to Los Anglous in 31 hours 4 minutes. hes the man.

    Here is my GPS, it's a simple wedge between the steering column and the dash. Easy set up and easy removal thanks to the "tilt steering wheel" feature, as I do not leave the GPS in at all times.

    No pics but I basically have a vent clip that holds my iPhone (which is all the gadgets I need for the most part) with an aux cable and charger cords coming from the standard spots. Works well enough.
