A local car shop does custom installs of some kind of high level k40 radar. It costs something like $1200 or more and has sensors mounted in bumpers side doors and quarterpanels and the interior visual warning lights can be mounted anywhere, most commonly done in the dash. Has anyone heard of this? they also make winsheild mounted detectors are these any good has anyone owned one? |

Glass, If you were going to install a remote similar to one of the ones tested what kind would you use. Also it seems that from what I have read, buying an upgraded rear remote is more or less pointless? In the tests the K-40 was pretty much helpless against laser where as the passport and the bel remotes, with laser diffusers I believe they called them, performed much better... is that something to be worried about. Because over all the k-40 had better numbers on other bands. thanks for the help and any advice you are willing to lend is much appreciated. |

I'd g with the escort with the lidar jammer myself.
overall good results, and I have the escort 8500 X50 in one car now that does very well.
I've always been a fan of cincinnati microwave, but more so prior to Cobra buying the company.
They're much better now than they were for a while there in the 1990s.
