[Biturbos4] Radar Detectors

[Philip Pace]

I have the SR7 and it has worked flawlessly. Doesn't 'detect' the tail lights of
several GM cars like the V1 does. In fact, it has detected laser that the V1 missed
(and saved my a$$ a half mile down the road where the cop was). I've turned off the
laser on the V1 (as well as the X band), but the arrows rock. I won't ever go with
anything else. Check Audiworld for some installation ideas to make it look built in.

P.S. The SR7 has been discontinued for a couple years now, but it was around $350
when I bought it.
