    :/ The amount of money extra for the QUAD vs. what you'll be paying in lawyer fees, your personal time in court, and possibly insurance premium increases, for a speeding ticket, is far less.
    Actually, one of the really great things about FL is that we have inexpensive ticket lawyers. You can almost certainly spend 80 dollars (or less) plus courts costs )around the value of a ticket) and get no points. You wouldn't have to go to court or driving school. Do get those rear heads though, you need those here. FHP can be a crafty bunch of LEOs, so always bring your A Game.

    I just still can't get over how this is possible. What are the odds!

    I think that goes under Murphey's Law.

    I'll order the rear sensors this fall. Wanted to start with this first. Still in the process of selling 2 houses an buying a new one down there so $$ is a little tight. I want to pull apart the trunk lid of the audi and figure out the easiest way to wire the rear sensors. The fronts should be easy wthl a little cutting of the grill.

    Thanks again for the quick response. Oh and cliff is quick to respond to e-mails even on a Sunday morning. Service doesn't get much better than that.

    What kind of Audi do you have? I have a 2002 A4 1.8T Quattro sedan and placement options for rear heads is limited.

    You don't need to cut the grill if your S4 is a B8. Take a look at how I did mine below. They're level and pointed straight ahead. Last picture is my switch location in the ashtray. Let me know if you have any questions. FWIW, I have yet to encounter LEOs shooting rear outside of South FL.

    I'm in central FL and work in Tampa so let me know if you would like to see my install. I don't currently have rear heads (own them but havent gotten around to installing them), but on a B8, the best place to put them is on the trunk overhang to the left and right of the license plate with double sided tape and pop out the license plate lights and run the wires through them.

    Yeah the B8 is a delight for jammer installs, especially the S4 with its wider grill slats and the wide lip over the rear plate. The heads fit without cutting. The B6 A4 like what I have is about as jammer-install-unfriendly as a car can get. I don't even know where I'll put rear heads if I ever decide to add them to my car.

    I have a b6 so I haven't figured out the rear placement. Thus why i figured I would get the front and then figure out the rear after.
