Laser jammer rear mounting Question
I've had the Bel RX65 Pro RD and also their Laser Pro 905 for over a year and never mounted the LP 905. It has the three units, 2 front and 1 back. I have now mounted the two front jammer units and was going to put the one on the back pretty soon.
I try to read Radar Roy information and here on this formum also plus some tests. I have found some posts here that say puting the unit on the back of my car is worthless or close to it. I would be putting the rear jammer on the top of my license plate.
I'm not up on radar guns in WA, ID, MT, OR, NV where i might venture occasionally. I have seen Laser SP on overpasses, next to overpass on ramps (shooting from the rear i would expect), and in FW dividers.
My question is: Is there any testing that shows the rear LP 905 unit won't work on rear end laser shots or one unit works very poorly. Does anyone here have good/bad experience with one rear mount laser jammer. And also, will i get any better front protection puting it on my front license between the front two already there.
Below is a pic of my car, it's Dark Green Metallic, no headlights in daytime, and the two units i have on are equal spaced in the dark spot between the outside running lights and the license plate.
Almost seems like overkill to put 3 in front and have no rear protection, especially since the two in front are only about 14" from either the running lights or the front licence plate.
TIA....If Roy sees this....what's your opinion. Going to be taking a trip to Vegas, Laughlin, Grand Canyon, Page, etc the end of April. Want to get my laser protection up and running before then.

Here is the deal the 905 is the same thing as the ZR3 which will be obsolete in 2 months. read hits are pretty rare. I would put the 3rd head up front, for an older unit like the 905 this should give you pretty good coverage, plus all you have to do is mount it the front license plate.
Mounting rear Bell Laser Pro 905 Thanks for the Info
Have decided to mount the rear unit on the front plate so i will have three units up front. Yes, I realize the Bel LP 905 is no longer made and is basically the same as the ZR3, but i wanted to try something and got this setup because it's such a great match with my Bel RX 65 RD. Got it at a dealer on a close out price which was hard to pass up since I had the RX 65 already.
Also, putting some heavy tint on the running lights and the laser shield plate covers. The way i drive (5-10 over PSL's on the highway) with an occasional sprint on wide open freeways, should keep things interesting. My Vette has a pretty low profile in the front and no headlighs during the day and it's a dark color to boot.
If it works decent and I want some rear protection will probably go with LPP or LI unit front and back. Until then have to watch the overpasses and such from the rear. I know they are there.
Thanks for your comments.
