I live in VA and have been using a V1 in my car and truck for the last 8 years. They're hard wired and tucked up high so you can't see them easily, but they're there and they work just fine.
Oh... and last I knew, the only places in the US were they're illegal is VA and the District of Columbia. VA will never get rid of the law. They make too much ticket revenue from the other east coast drivers that think VA must be kidding and leave them sitting in the middle of their windshields.

Then you don't even have to have safety inspections!

well, I'm in Chesapeake, and work in Norfolk and don't drive my SS much, but I don't have a front plate and I've got 35% all the way around, and I've never had any issues. (knock on wood)
