I too like it, NICE FIND!
Regading your jammers, what brand? If they are Escort "shifters" ...trust me, don't get too complacent...they are NOT very good...if you can, test them against some guns to validate the effectivness and where you get punch-through (which you will) BEFORE you go right-footing...I know first hand with these...I had them on my Porsche...garbage...NOW, if you have Laser interceptors...Sweet! (still test them for proper placement though...imho)

...Although they have probably gotten better over the years, if you know how old they are, and the ZR Shifters are exactly what I had in my Porsche, they still are no where near as precise a the newer units; some of which are updateable to the newer guns (LI as example). THESE units are definetly outdated...sorry, just telling the truth! ALSO the heads should NEVER be hidden behind anything...they must be "exposed", level, and slightly protruding out the grill, up high, next to the lights.If you are interested, here is a great place to learn about laser and all detectors for that matter...I have educated myself there for many years...no affiliation, just a good place to learn.
From wht i have read...The LI (Laser interceptor), is probably the best on the market...and after a few saves, and it will pay for itself...just saying
Read up...heres a link if you choose... http://www.radardetector.net/forums/...mmers-general/
Also, here is some LI videos... http://www.laser-interceptorusa.com/10701.html

Mods, I hope this is ok, just trying to pass on info...please delete if not cool ...I have NO affiliation
