    I don't think it will make a bit of difference. If the cop pulls you over for jamming, it's not because he saw your heads. It's because he knows how it sounds to be jammed. LT's will make your install prettier -- and a lot more expensive -- but aren't going to prevent many jammer arrests.

    Hmmm... How do you think they know? Are they trained to identify jammers?

    You guys in Texas are in for it. I can not believe that jamming lidar equipment warrants a trip to jail. Smells like Canada.

    Some are, but probably not most. But two things:

    1. Many cops tell us they know when they are being jammed by the gun reactions, which is certainly possible.

    2. Now that it is becoming a law, you can bet that there will be training regarding the devices.

    Update: a buddy of mine got told to take the jammers off his car this past weekend, because he was told by a cop " it would be bad if you got pulled over while driving and still have those jammers on your car." my friend was parked and a bike cop noticed the heads on his car. This was in uptown, Dallas. I wasn't with him and he did remove them after he got home. The guy has no way to stealth them, he drives a nice car and didn't want to make anymore holes just to get told to take them off a month from now. He wasn't too happy, although we both know that the cop telling you that while he noticed his parked car was/is not legal, we also know the cop would probably lose in court, but that wouldn't be a big waste considering he's not losing his salary by going to court over this whereas my buddy is losing quite a bit of money every day he misses from work. He's sure the reason why he told him is bc his ride is worth over 100k and he's under 30. I told my friend it's because the cop was probably pissed his date wasn't impressed by a 30 something year old bike cop in uptown and blew off his small talk bs.. Such is life, kinda sucks considering this guy actually works for his money and is not just a trust fund kid. Oh well.

    Id move. Not saying Ohio's great, but between the bad traffic, illegales, high property taxes, vehicle emissions testing, and hot humid summers, theres better choices of places to live out there (vs. TX)

    I'd rather just not speed with jammers on. I loved my LI, but getting thrown in jail is not worth it for me. If my record didn't matter, then that would be a different story, unfortunately it does for me. You can pay your way out of tickets without killing too much time...usually. A class B or a class a..or both...more likely to take up too much of my time. It was fun while it lasted.

    x2. This sounds like bogus. From what I've heard, Dallas cops actually have important stuff to worry about.
