Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, the Uniden R8 can definitely be hardwired to your vehicle instead of using the cigarette lighter for power. Uniden offers a hardwire kit specifically designed for this purpose. Hardwiring your radar detector gives you a cleaner setup, frees up your cigarette lighter outlet, and allows the radar detector to automatically turn on and off with your vehicle’s ignition. The process involves connecting the hardwire kit to your car’s fuse box, which is relatively simple if you're comfortable with basic wiring. If not, you can always have a professional install it for you.
