This is the 1st I have heard about them....

If I read it correctly, not only is is a built in radar detector (front and rear), but when it senses a laser signal (front or rear), it emits a laser signal of it's own. Of coarse, with all of those laser signals bouncing around, the original laser signal device gets confused and can't give an accurate reading... That is if I understood it correctly?

It looks like you are doing a very professional installation , and I have to assume that for it to be somewhat hidden AND work properly, it takes the level of installation that you are doing?

How effective have they been for you in the past?

Thanks for the "professional installation" comment...

As far as installation goes- this is a "Stealth" system anyway so the install is hidden.

Both Front and Rear Radar Antenna's are hidden in the bumpers - Laser is Light so it cannot be hidden.

All that is in the car is 2 LED's to indicate which direction the radar is comming from. Those are going into the Gauge Cluster. ( pics to come )

Hope that helps -
