Radar Detector/Jammer
Radar Detector/Jammer
I want to put a radar detector/jammer with the front and rear sensors in my G, but they seem to be fairly expensive.
Does anyone have one? Does it work well?
Anyone know where to get a deal on one and are they hard to install?

radar jammer or laser jammer?
radar jammers don't work unless you get your hands on a highly illegal (jail time if caught) version,
laser jammers work quite well.
and of course, radar detectors work. Most popular two are Valentine V1 and Escort 8500. We are not going to discuss, compare radar detectors in this thread, however, as it's been discussed to gorey detail in many many other threads.

As for avoiding jail time, one loophole I am looking into is getting a HAM (short wave) radio operators license, it allows you to legally broadcast on a certain range of frequencies. That's why jammers are illegal, you are broadcasting on a closed frequency... its an FCC thing.

Laser and radar are 2 totally different animals right? Radar falls under the control of the FCC and laser under the FDA since it is considered a light?

I'm very happy with my Escort 8500 X50/ZR3 combo.
