    What radar detector to buy?

    I'm FROM Montreal, Canada and radar detectors are illegal. I was wondering if there is a radar/laser detector that the police can't detect or hard for them to detect. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    I am planning on installing a Beltronics 975. All of the compenents are hidden. The front Radar/Laser detector is mounted in the grill and the electronics are mounted wherever you want. I plan on hiding mine where the ashtray would have been (don't smoke so I don't need it). You can see their stuff at : http://www.beltronics.com

    It is a bit pricey, but I am a gadget freak so this stuff is cool to me.

    yes, but can the police detect it. I have heard horror stories of cops dismantling your dash to find it...

    Nah. The system has a sensor that shuts it down if it detects the radar detector detector. There was a link here somewhere to a test that was run on different radar detectors, don't remember where, but most of them were very effective against radar detector detectors.

    SO it shuts off automatically when there is a laser in front or behindÉ How does it go back on? After a certain delay or you manually turn it back on? I want to make sure because its a hefty fine up here if you get caught with one...

    I would sue the crap out of the cop if he attempted to do this on my car.... regardless if I had a radar detector hidden or not.

    IMO doing this would require a search warrant.

    I don't have one (I live in VA one of the first states to ban detectors), but everyone I know outside the state seems to have the Valentine One. Never heard a bad thing about it.

    I think they have to ask if they can look in your car that means everywhere in LEO language? either that or probable cause, and if using one in a state where their banned well guess what?
