laser jammers - front and rear diffusers needed?
A friend just got a C4S cab and is looking at radar/laser protection. He was wondering if he should get both front and rear diffusers. I only have front and have had no issue with getting hit with laser from the rear. What do you think?

I have just fronts also. So far no tickets.
I really wonder where they would install the rear diffusers, since they have to be near the license plates. There is really no place to mount them on the trunk lid and having them below the rear valance is just about useless.
Id just stick to fronts.

a little OT but sort of related:
So if these things scramble the laser, how do they affect cars with laser cruise control? Would it cause the car to misjudge distance and possible rear end you?

AFAIK MB's distronic works on over radar. I hear it works on the X band, so radar detectors will go off near cars that are using distronic.

I was actually wondering about other cars like our Infiniti QX56 that uses lasers to judge distance. I would hope the sytem would get an error and shut off, but I would hate to have an unattentive QX driver plow into the back of my car.
