    Default M47 arrived

    My M47 arrived yesterday. I will put up a pic to see what you guys think about mounting location. GMC pickup with chrome grill.

    You're going to have to cut that grill I'm afraid.

    It'll be a tight squeeze but I'm afraid so too.

    Are all heads going up front?

    Where you going to mount the heads on your truck? Are they thin enough to fit in the grill slats?

    Either all 4 in the grill, or two in the grill and two in the holes on either side of the plate holder. I have added smoked headlight and signal covers since I do nearly all of my driving in daylight and usually don't speed at night. Guess I can Veil fog lights and the covers if need be. And no they don't fit between the grill slats. I can say they are smaller than I expected. Problem for me where I live is it will be almost impossible for me to test them, except for the ultimate testing.

    Nah, you're too close to me for that to be a problem. We'll work it out when you're ready. Of course, there's the Houston test on the 24th too, if you can make that.

    Last I remember, you were saying there was no laser there yet. Did they finally get it?

    Wouldn't mind a road trip to get them properly setup, and would be nice to meet you. My business partner got nailed 50 miles from where I live and my OHP buddy said they were testing a new Laser gun just south of town. Genius didn't even know what kind they were testing. He said the troopers really didn't care for it since they had to hold it and get out of the car. Said they could get all the speeders they want with just moving radar. LOL, and no I didn't discuss my new parking sensors with him.

    Looking forward to the test on the Mx7 Series. Waiting for that then make my decision. I think though I'm looking at the LI series after talking with many members on here.

    Yeah the OHP can nail people all day with radar, well those with out a good V1 or 9500 lol

    I just smile and wave everytime i pass them gunning me
