I just installed the Blinder M27 on my 370Z. Now I have to figure out a way to test them.
Does anyone have access to a LIDAR gun in the NY Area?

First, can you post a pic of the install?
Talk to crazyvolvorob.
I tried posting a pictures but I got a message saying I need 15 posts before I'm allowed to post pictures.:confused: Once I can post I'll share. I replaced the Blinder switch with on that looks more OEM with my car too
IMO it's kinda low... I'd move them up more...
Your Blinder heads are too low. They need to be up two slots.
I'll remount it then, I was just nervous with it getting in the way of the tow hook
I'll mount it to the top grill, there is enough room there. Does it matter if I mount them upside down?
If that is a concern then you should buy a more reliable vehicle.Quote:

The Transponders are easy to relocate, I used the 3M tape
Thanks all for your feedback!
I'm sure i'm not the only one, but i don't recommend using ONLY 3m tape for a permanent mount, especially in winter, it has a harder time sticking.Quote:

Pardon the thread jack, (I think they are too low also)
But, are you going to ZdayZ this year?
I am not in NY area and I don't plan to be making any trips to that region for along time....Also my Laser Atlanta is broken and I am too cheap to repair it.
Your Blinder heads are EXTREMELY too low and they are angled out to the sides.
Heads should he within 18" from headlight and should be pointed straight down the road and not out to the side!
I use 3M heavy duty all weather mounting tape to mount my heads and I have had amazing luck. They are actually harder to make stick in the summer. In the Winter they are easierQuote:

A friend of mine was talking about ZdayZ. I don't think I could make it...it would be fun.Quote:

2. I think there is a problem with mounting them upside down. I know the ZR3/4s have trouble. Ask Blinder Guy.
3. 3M Moulding tape has been holding up my LPP since forever ago. Just make sure you clean up the area well. Since it'd be held by tape, you could remove them in case you needed to use the tow hook. It'd just take some wiggling to loosen the grip.
Hi
i am also from NYC, brooklyn to be exact and i am getting my blinder m47 next week, and after i install it i would love to get it tested to make sure that this investment is working properly before i get into any trouble. Were you able to find a member or a place here to get it tested?
btw did you do install yourself?
I had a friend over in Bronxville help me install it. I'm going to move the transponders this weekend. I'll post up pics once it's done.
