Few LI newbie question???

[newkid]

Hello Everyone,

I finally decided to get laser jammers. I was looking at LI dual for my car. I drive a 95 toyota corolla (see image - same color).

1. I'm thinking about buying a new corolla or camry - not for a year or so... If i do install LI on my old corolla can i easily transfer them to my new car? or should i wait till i get the new car?

2. If i put the LI heads at red line - indicated in the pic. (next to the head lights) do i need put viel on the head lights?

3. I'm guessing everything has it flaws/weakness. For example for RD - I/O to defeat it. What are weakness for LI or LEOs tactics to defeat LI?

4. I live in Michigan so i'm afraid about snow and salt straching the LI lenes? What are some other ways to get around this problem? Instead of having to buy new lens every year?

5. I'm not a expert at car electronics so do you guys think i should leave this installation to pros or if there is someone around canton, mi area willing to help me with the install?

Thank's

Hi Newkid,

Obviously, the initial install will take far longer then the uninstall, leveling of the sensors, drilling the mounting holes, etc etc but it is good practice!

Usually passive Countermeasures such as Veil are not required with an LI but that is your choce. There are schools of though both ways on this and I do not want to take away from another Countermeasures Manufacturers' product's capabilities. As to your mounting position, ideally, you want your LI Sensors to be mounted as close vertically and horizontally as possible to your headlights. With that said, there is some latitude with this rule.

As to LI weaknesses, as the Distributor, it would be inappropriate for me to comment in this regard but in short order, Members of this Community will chime in so you will receive many thoughts and opinions for you to evaluate.

The LI Lenses are made of a very durable material and scratches as well as pitting are to be expected as a result of their mounting environments but such artifacts do not interfere with the LI's functionality. The lenses should of course be kept clean and free of debris such as snow, dirt and grime however as these will affect it's and any LCM performance.

As to an install, I'm sure there are many in your area that will be willing to assist you. If not, any Automobile Stereo Installation Center at all familiar with Remote RADAR Detector and LCM installations can install the LI for you.

I would put the heads in the lower and larger grill but spread them out to protect the headlights to give better over protection.

All those times members complain that they were hit with laser and their windshield-mount radar detector never went off...

It's because LEO's aim low. (to avoid the windshield and radar detectors that might be there.)

Not that the LI's wouldn't detect and jam a low center-mass shot, but I think the lower bumper would put them in the "target area" better.

Thank's for a detailed answer cliff. I know u have to vague about LI weaknesses and anyone can shed some light on it.

I should install LI dual at the red region than the yellow region (see image)

Edit...

I didnt look at the revised or second photo with the head placement moved to the lower grill where I recommended. That would be the best location. Sorry.

[Z1NONLY]

Go ahead and place the LI's in the less desirable location in red and you just might have undesirable results.

"less desirable location"? So putting the heads where the LEO's are most likley to target the car is "less desirable"? (although the red spots look a little too far out toward the edges)

The truth is the OP has a small car that the the LI's should protect with no problem. (either location)

Edit once again......

Sorry Im tired....I agree with you Z1NONLY, I didnt see he added a new pic with the recommended head placement I posted earlier. I have to get ready to go over too my buddies and get those jammers installed before the road trip.

I am sure even with any jammer, it'd be enough to save you form a ticket...
