I'm seriously debating this. I currently do not have a radar detector either. I'm thinking about going with the Valentine 1 or the Escort Passport 9500ix along with this LI unit.

I'm assuming the dual version is front only and the quad version is front and back. My fear if I don't get both front and back protection is a popo who's sitting on a freeway on-ramp and hitting folks from the rear. If you have plenty of people around you I'm assuming the radar detector should pick it up? But if there's no one around you and he hits you I'm assuming you'd be SOL?

Any idea how hard of an install it would be on one of our 1 series? I'd more than likely pay an installer to do it. I'm debating swapping out grills sometime in the future, I'm assuming I could fairly easily unmount / remount them assuming I pay close attention to where they are installed.
