Built in Radar Detectors
Would appreciate some suggestions on built in detectors that work. I have been considering a K 40 Calibre Radar/ Laser detector

Look up the Bell detector. They are supposed to have one of the best to build in but I think it's around $1500. Maybe less now. They also make the Escort detectors. These days you need a Laser jammer too if you want better coverage. Lots of threads on the subject if you search it.

there's tons or mirror options out there. just hit the auction site and search for "auto dimming mirror".
they all start from there and just pile on the options. my mirror is as loaded as you can get.
i went with gentex because it's a pretty reputible brand.
