Radar Detector in New 2017 440i

I (and my new 2017 440i) are new to the forum and I’m looking for tips about hard-wiring my Valentine V1. I’ve found lots of good information here, but nothing yet that is specific to my 2017 440i.

I want to mount the V1 just above the mirror and tap into the power from the wipers or overhead lights so that the unit receives power only when the ignition is on. I’ve done this successfully on a 2001 X5 and a 2012 Grand Cherokee. I have a remote unit between the speedo and the tach in the jeep but I’m not sure I want put a remote unit in the new 440.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Here are the best links I’ve found so far:
