    Default So... tell me what my options are

    Here's the deal, I have a Black Scion tC with front licence plate...

    I'm looking for full frontal protection and I'm not sure what to get.

    I've heard good things about the blinder m20, but I heard rumors of a blinder m25 coming out in 2007...

    however, these are both LED based and apparently diode based ones are alot better... now, I know with the blinder they provide about 18" radius of protection with each sensor, how much better are diodes? can I just mount ONE diode head in the front to get full protection? (my car doesnt really have any nice spots for the blinder heads, ill probably need to cut the grill)

    Also, do you know if radar is used in southern california anymore? I got hit with a laser today but got off with a warning from the cop... now i need to get some protection, lol..

    Thanks!

    diodes can jam from huge ranges led's are weaker and there's a good chance of punchtrough occuring at unusual (high) distances. But with a black car like yours a m20 w/veil applied to headlights should work fine

    so m20 + veil will give me full frontal protection?

    awesome.

    also, how much would one more sensor cost, id like to put one on the rear just for peace of mind!

    i found the m20 for $271 is that a good deal? what else is around that range?

    With that price I doubt it comes from an authorizes dealer. And only authorized dealers will allow you to get your blinder updated

    Buy from Roy and chances are he'll give you a discount

    Where would you mount the jammer heads on a scion? Will you cut the grille?
