    Default Stealth: if money were no object...?

    If money were no object (well, within reason), what's your vote on the best solution for a stealth installation of radar detector and laser jammer? By "best" I mean both most effective, and most elegant (ie, so all the parts work together nicely).

    For example, to get started - what do you think of the Escort Passport SRX? Seems like a good all-in-one solution to me, but I don't know much about the performance...

    Also, here's one of a number of "kits" I found while poking around (really just a few things packaged together): http://www.1stradardetectors.com/pro...stallation.php

    And hey, while I'm at it - anyone know good installers in the NYC area?



    Thanks

    I've got an SR7 with the ZR3 upgrade which is essentially an SRX. This system was on it's last legs performance wise when I bought it three years ago but nowdays I would consider it firmly obsolete. However, it's very nice having the alerts all in one spot and with the external speaker missing alerts is very unlikely.

    But that's about it.

    I would probably coat the car in iron ball paint.... but getting the USAF style stuff is probabably expensive....

    Best complete stealth remote install in my opinion:

    -2 Bel STi-R's, 1 in the front and 1 in the back.
    -Laser Interceptor with Quad heads, 2 in the front and 2 in the back
    -CB
    -Best police scanner

    Great, thanks for the replies so far. A couple questions:

    What's the deal with Laser Interceptor? I saw their performance tests, but their website seems so crappy, and I'm having trouble finding any dealers. Doesn't seem like a really tried-and-tested product. Or am I confused, not looking at the correct product?

    Also, with regards to the jammer - does it matter what my car is like, physically? It's a 2007 328xiT. So the front looks like this:

    http://reviews.cnet.com/sc/32329714-2-440-0.jpg

    As for the RDs:

    What's the story with the Bel Sti-R? It looks like it's only manufactured in Europe, or something...?

    And, for the V1 - I'm looking at doing some form of a "remote" installation, like the kind where the read out appears in the rear view mirror. I read somewhere that a remote mounting (outside the car I suppose, behind the grille? just a guess) would significantly hurt performance. Thoughts?

    Thanks again guys!
