Hey! **** off with your logic!

Wouldn't the metal (hood, firewall, engine, wiring, etc.) interfere with the RADAR signal? Bounce it around too much, weakening it or increasing false alarms?



I used to get false LASER readings in my SRT with the 8500 when I either punched the throttle or turned my headlights (HIDs) on. Wasn't always, but still scared the **** out of me.
