No, if you wish to use an external speaker for the LI CPU, you will need a separate speaker. Wiring the LI and the STiR Plus to the same speaker will damage the LI which is not covered under warranty.

Ah well, thanks again for all the info.I've decided where to install my LIs. It involves cutting!
I made a post with lots of pics in the build thread I've been keeping for my car:
Nate's build thread - Page 2
Been meaning to post, so I got everything back together and it seems good. I'm parallel to the front of the car, straight ahead, not cross-eyed at all. I'm very level, using the supplied little green level. However, after completing everything, I realize I'm looking toward the sky slightly. I measured with an angle finder and it seems I'm looking up 7 degrees. Do you think it is worth pulling off the bumper and dorking around to get this to zero?
Nate,
Yes, up to the sky is no good! They must, must be pointed straight ahead like headlights for optimal performance.

Damn, I knew you would say that. But, but... I don't want to take off the bumper again!![]()
Slight hijack, if you suggest a separate speaker, are there any speakers you recommend over others? How big does the speaker have to be? How much fidelity comes from the alert tones?
Also I'm confused as to "flush" as well. So if I were to look at the car bird's eye from the top down, does the LI have to be flush/in front of the most forward part of the car, or does it just need to be flush with it's immediate surroundings?
This is a nice speaker: Auxiliary Speaker - Radar Detectors | Laser Detectors | Radar & Laser Experts ESCORT Radar
Flush with the grill mounting area as seen in the attached below.

That was my old driver. That install was perfect! :-)
