Radar Detectors
 

I'm after any advice or opinion to do with the idea of purchasing a Radar Detector. I don't drive my Z with a lead boot on all the time, but there are plenty of times when I get stuck behind the 90 year old "Sunday driver" and hit the gas to overtake when the opportunity arises.
Here in New Zealand they are still legal to use, so what I would like info on is - if you use one, what type, do they really work and is it worth getting one?

Thanks for any replies and information offered. :tiphat:

Slow down ure going to fall off ur island!! :mad:

I run Valentine1 in my cars

And get the Blendmount and invisicord if u have a gentex mirror (homelink)

That is the only way to fly. :tup:

I've read that the Valentine 1 or the Escort Max are top end.
How good is your V1, would you recommend it?

i have 2 units for my 2 cars, and recently got the updated ones. they are very good.

i might get another one for my other car.

yep, i recently got one for my STI too. very cool. the 9" cord they sell is perfect.

I currently have three Valentine One units. I have bought a total of five units and I'm not changing brand anytime soon.

just had to one up me, huh? :shakes head:

When did you get STI Kenchan?

Last month. :D

One up? Please, check your math; I have over-double up you in the number of Valentine One units I have owned ;)

Soon over-triple ...

So what do you do when you live in a place where radar detectors are illegal but you still want one. I didn't even know they were illegal in Virginia until crossing the state line coming from NC and seeing clear as day a warning sign about radar detectors.

I presume you would have to have one hard wired and hidden in the front grill or something.

no cause i purchased 4 units total. i currently have 2 units. :shakes head:
