Whilst checking out some schtuff in front of the rad of the 5kq I
found said subject in a discrete position.  About 4x4x1.5 inches.
No markings on it but after prying the front and back off, it
looks like a ra...errr...detector.  Just strapped onto the
plastic housing donchano.  Followed the wire into the cockpit and
found the display unit was not there, wires cut right off.

Le question.  Not knowing too much about these, should I try to
make this baby work or will I wind up in big trouble living here
in Canada and all (where I understand they are illegal).  There
are four wires, no doubt one is power, another ground, one for a
light thingy and one for a noise thingy.  Since these cars are
made to go fast, I thought perhaps I might need a little added
protection, even though I keep my eyes wide open all the time.
Anyone got one of these?  I know the description is a little
ambiguous but if you mail me I can give you some more details.
Any thoughts appreciated.
