I see alot of the valentine displays integrated into the rearview mirror I would think if a cop pulls you over especially in cali and sees that display then the godfathers gettin a ticket

Too much going on for me between the suction cups on windshield, the unit above speedo and the unit below the visor.

But, if you like the setup

how does the 11-99 plate work for you?

has it helped?

That didn't make sense. So the cop won't see the radar detector itself? The display is integrated in the rearview mirror, in plain sight of the officer behind you, whereas mine is hidden from view. I don't get the logic...

Yeah I'm not a fan of having the scanner there, but that's the only logical place to put it. I would too rather not have it there.

It doesn't hurt. But no one is immune to tickets, no matter who they are.

it's missing the KrispyKreeme store detector

car looks good Doc, how you like it so far?

Install looks very clean....who did you get the slim screen from on the audi forums....

how well does police scanner work?

Hell whatever keeps the fuzz off your azz bro! I'm looking fwd to seeing new wheels on that badboy!

does the scanner alert to local police or a lot of alerts to police further away? do you have to listen to it or does it have a alarm for police on the road ahead? how does it work for you? thanks

RE: the display here is his eBay auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/Custom-THIN-Vale...QQcmdZViewItem

His seller ID is agravic

He's a top notch guy. Met him on an occasion as well


This scanner is a bit different. It has an "extender" detector. The CHP is the only agency in CA as far as I know to use extenders. What it is, is that when an officer gets out of a car, radio traffic needs to be transmitted to their shoulder mic. They need to activate that feature from their dash. When they do so, it emits a signal. That signal and any subsequent mic triggers or radio traffic will be picked up by the scanner's "extender" detector within a 3 mile range. So that gives you the approximate location of CHP in a 3 mile range. But when does the officer have this extender turned on? When he's pulled over somebody. So it's somewhat useless, but at the same time, if he's behind you and then it comes on, you know you're getting popped.... then you can evaluate your options lol. I remember once when my buddy was meeting me somewhere and arrived at the location and said "**** I just got popped by CHP and booked it before he could turn around" as he said that, the "extender" detector kicked in, and I knew for a fact, that CHP officer was around looking for him

heard the scanners were getting useless because of the switch to digital.

Don't they use laser in Cali? Any protection from that?
