On the "how hard to install" question, I've done a couple and installation is actually pretty simple, especially if the Sportvue guys have your bike in their installation notes.
You basically need to find a spot on the bike for a small box about the size of a pack of cigarettes (typically under the seat), wire up power, and wire a couple sensors (wheel speed and crankshaft position). Gear position is inferred from speed and RPM after going though the setup process.
The display attaches to one's visor - you position it, prep the visor surface, and press on an adhesive clip.
An hour or two at most and they have the connectors and instructions well sorted.
The Cobra Tag may help you win that losing battle, acting as a Bluetooth device that attaches to your key ring and connects to your phone, it gives you the opportunity to find the missing item if it's less than 30 feet away.
