Installing Passport SR7

Has anyone here installed the passport SR7 on their car??? If so where did you mount the shifters? Doesn't seem there is a good spot to mount them w/o cutting the lower grills....

They HAVE to be mounted in clear unobstructed view of the road and perfectly level.

Install them in front of the grill at the outer most part of the car.

Just asking....aren't the shifters supposed to be near the license plate, since that's where the laser is usually aimed?

Why the SR7??? Get a hold of Cliff at LI (Laser Interceptor/ he's got a C63) and ask him. Get the LI, its the best out there!! The SR7 can be beat by a LOT of newer Lidar guns!!

Also, as to mounting, this is "critical." Level is impt BUT even more so is placement on the vehicle. They shoot for front plate and /or headlights first. If not front plate, then definitely headlights and or fog lights. The new 8.9 LI is the best of the best out there.

I confirm. Passport is garbage, I've got LI and it's the BEST.

The distributor of USA LI has a C63, so he's the guy to ask.
