I am thinking of a dual head set up myself, and possibly a rear head eventually. It's a major PITA to route wires from the trunk lid forward, hence my reservations.

Perhaps 2 units, each flanking the plate would work. I thought about the grill w/ a vertical installation, but have all but ruled that out as the slats are angled (not vertical) which would again make installation more trouble than its worth. I've had good results with my current LE30 units so installed and can't see how the LI could do worse.

Any other suggestions/ideas?

Hi Jws,

Each of the rear sensors can be mounted vertically on either side of your plate or horizontally on either side of the top of your plate.
As to the front, there is nothing wrong about a conventional mounting scenario under the bumper.

Will this location protect from plate shots as well?

/\ /\ /\ Easily IMHO.


The only concern I would even think of having is the outter (top right) part of your HL assemblies (G4 is your fix for that), but not the LP, that would be optimally protected with that mounting position.

[djrams80]

With that mounting, the plate shots are a gimme JTG, as long as the heads are mounted properly, meaning straight and level. I think you will get JTG on headlight shots also, but I am not quite as confident about that. I'd give it an 80% chance at JTG at the headlights. Veil G4 would certainly assure JTG at the headlights, but I doubt it's necessary.

Bubbles out and you'll have JTG on HL also without VEIL!

Will this location protect from plate shots as well?

As I've mentioned in our PMs, I believe that location (slightly below, as you said, for there is a piece of plastic, not visible in the picture, there) is ideally suited to protecting the plate (as well as the fog-lights, if you've got those on your vehicle).

However, it may compromise performance somewhat, with regard to greenhouse coverage (including sideview mirrors).

There's, unfortunately, no way to know if using either that position or the previously proposed upper-grill location (which should bias protection more for the headlights as well as the upper greenhouse), without first-hand testing in controlled circumstances.

"Academically" speaking, either of the two proposed protections should provide you at least "effective JTG," if not "true-JTG."
