I've heard the higher the mounting the better, as the detector has a better "view" down the road (must be boring to see only microwaves).
As for positioning it to the left or right, I can't see that making too much of a difference: the cops aim their evil devices from various sides of the road. So wherever you're comfortable with it will probably be fine.
The regular cops I saw the many times I went bombing to NJ from Cornell were on 81 (Castle Creek Exit is a favorite of theirs)though sometimes you see them staking out various places on 79 (Slaterville, and other places where the limit drops). I've heard bad things about PA, though I've never had a problem. My V-1 (mounted high by rear-view mirror) has definitely saved me from a few tickets...
Good luck!
Best,
Lutfisk
