Radar Detectors, Which is best? Options

[JoKeRkId613]

I'm in the market for a radar detector. i need the best one available. lol. any recommendations? i prefer it to have a blue display. i've seen many that are red but i want mine to be blue. i like the ones that make the cool noises when you start the car too. those cool little beeps. lol. and of course, be good at detecting all types of radar detectors/cops/whatever. please let me know whats good out there. i also dont want that cigarette lighter crap. is there anyway i can connect it to the cigarette lighter wires behind the plastic. like connecting it to the power and ground wires from the cig lighter so that you dont see that plug or anything? thanks guys.

Thanks for the heads up Justin, I was about to buy one. Lol. My gut told me to check out if anyone had posted. Scanner... hmmm... interesting. Which one would I need? Or better question? How/where do I get one and which brand is good? Thanks.

Oh dude, I got the matrix led bulbs in the mail today and im going to put them in tomorow. you got any pics of ur caR justin? i see you have a blue led interior. thats what im going for. i couldnt put the led bulb through the back of the cluster. im guessing i have to unscrew the gauges and stick the bulb through the front, right?[right][snapback]353315[/snapback][/right]

I don't remember what type of scanner or anything but if you go to radioshack I'm sure they'll be able to set you up no problem.
Oh just a little warning about scanners... In some states when a scanner is used during a crime the punishment / sentence can be increased significantly.

The matrix LEDs fit fine in my cluster. I just had to wiggle them in a little bit. Here are a couple pictures for you:

The interior looks awesome. I can't wait to finish mine. Very nice. The lighting on the gauges look perfect. I tried wiggling them in a bit but nothing. I guess I'll stick em in through the front and joing the little green plug thing in the back. It should work.

Thanks for the info on the scanner. I'll check out radioshack tomorrow. I'm not worried about the crime thing. Lol. I'm not planning on killing someone. It's more for the street racing thing. I figured so much more people would have a police scanner but I guess not. That's so odd. I can't believe I got that radar detector so cheap! Let's see what they tell me at radioshack.
