I nearly went the route of a fixed detector as I already had one, but opted for a satnav with speed cameras instead
If you read my write up on installing it inside the dash storage it is pretty easy to get a female 12v socket, or a doubler, inside the top centre speaker/blanking plate.
From there a tail cane be brought out behind the speaker for easy attachment of any detector using the oem lead.
Incidently the speaker grill is metal meaning my standalone detector just magnetically attached itself avoiding the need for suckers or brackets.
Or if you don't have navi then munt inside the storage unit.

Btw you don't have to use the centre console 12v socked like me it is just as easy to get a lead from the fuse box/footwell source up to the centre dash position.
