Default Ooooohhh I'm jealous!

That's what I'd dearly love to add to my A8. I even picked the spot for the display (bottom of the dash above the center console). I just don't have the ability to do the job to my own standards! It's hell being a perfectionist!

Default Re: Heh, thats what I plan on avoiding:)

Any idea on how many mph the laser shifting do-hickies will reduce the speed measurement?

I saw on the escort site a price of $1,500 or $1,600 with options. Did you find it cheaper?

Very very cool. Good luck with it!

Default The one made by Lidatek jams the laser gun for 5 secs,

so they can get no reading at all. By then you should have slowed down to a point where you won't be ticketed.
I got the dual transponder version (click on the LE-30 link below), which goes for $550, but saved about $125 through the AudiWorld group buy.

Default The SRX laser shifter info

I have a connection that sells them for $800. To have a warranty it needs to be installed by a profession approved by escort. If anyone wants one LMK. I can get them ( in your hands ) from an old car electronics friend in as soon as 4 days, the latest 2 weeks. That price is with the hidden display parts. These are new units in box.

The SRX "shifts" the laser until you press the mute/reset button. Hit that after you slow down to an approved speed and they will think the laser gun had a noise issue ( which they are common for ) until you got closer to him

"And having tested the SRX shifters extensively, installed on both cars, trucks and SUVs, we can attest to their effectiveness. Pitted against all five of the most popular models of police laser gun, the SRX executed its laser-shifting duties so efficiently that few had any clue that our target vehicles even existed. In nearly every test, the laser's target- speed display remained blank from the 1,250-foot limit of our test site down to our 450-foot threshold--sometimes to point-blank range-- a remarkable feat of electronic wizardry."
