Default Laser/LIDAR Countermeasures Links. Review?

Would anyone be interested in getting together some sort of test for these units? I can try to contact the manufacturers and arrange for demo units or something thru the NY Club. I also have several NY State Trooper friends who would be willing to give me a hand in testing these things.

BONUS: we get to drive like rat bastards down a little used parkway near rochester, taking runs at the cop with countermeasures blazing =)

Get the Escort Passport SRX

Or the Lidatek LE-20 Laser echo
<a href="http://www.lidatek.com/">here</a>

Or the Blinder M-10 Twin
<a href="http://www.blinder.dk">here</a>

The ZR3 is the same shifer in the SRX, just not an 'integrated unit' w/ radar

I know. You can plug it into your 8500 though for a total package.

Default Sign me up I would also love to see how lidar works on my car

a 93 rx-7 with no front plate, absolutely no flat surfaces to hit with lidar, even the raditator is at an angle.

Default I might. Email me as your gather more details.

I'm stopping at Tweeter on the way home to start asking questions about the ZR3. Expensive, but so are speeding tickets...I've had 3 in the last 6 years, two were on interstates in Ohio...clocked on laser! I'll be driving through Ohio this Sunday...at 70 mph! :-( I'm actually down in the Philly area, but I could make my way up north for some testing, given advance notice.
