    Bad idea ! Some here get away running a remote and a dash unit and thats about it.

    Don't run two RDs together. They will interfere with each other. The best way to run two together is to have a remote installed one and a windshield mounted one.

    You *can* but it'd need some through testing to make sure they aren't 1 setting each other off, or the much more scary 2, causing one or both detectors to miss alerts altogether or at reduced sensitivity.

    It's *easier* with one remote RD and one ash mount.

    But you need to be willing to devote lots of time to testing if you wnat to run multiples.

    Like a 9500ci... radar antenna and laser shifters and installed in the grille of your car and the display and interface in installed in your vehicle. Its a custom install.

    When i was pondering getting a V1 my thought was to install it remotely in the front grill and run a remote display in the car.

    I decided to wait for a completely stealth V1 and stay with the 9500 instead. I find it very rare where the arrows would of been an advantage, nice but no advantage.

    The tech I talked to at VR said no. He made note even if the two RD’s are not setting each other’s alerts systems off they could well be interfering with each other.

    I asked him any way to tell. He said I could run some test equipment and try and make a determination but more than likely it would be expensive. He said look at some of the distances I have picked up Cobras. So if two RD’s are on the same car there is a possibility even if they are not alerting, without proper test equipment, you wouldn’t know if they are interfering with each other.

    Have fun reinventing the wheel.

    I can think of better ways to waste my time than trying to prove something that a million other people have already proven.
