Its the one that runs up to the sunroof. I haven't had any problems whatsoever. I have it mounted up by my rearview mirror. Mounted in clear view, but doesn't obstruct vision. If I recall correctly, all the necessary connectors are included with the V1. The only tricky part is getting into the front console, and then making sure you have a solid ground. Give it a shot- You'll like your V1 much better.
