    I just measured (the same setup that gave me grief and BEFORE I flip the heads as per above) a few distances worth mentioning

    1) Middle of car to middle of each receiving bubble in the standard ALP head: 12.5"
    2) Middle of receiving bubble in standard head to middle of headlight: 12.5"

    This means my receiver is currently "perfectly" positioned to receive a hit for CM and the headlight assembly.

    By moving the receivers closer together, my concern (logically) is that if I get hit on the headlight then I'm toast, but if I get hit at CM then I'll be fine.
    Not necessarily the case. We have lots of vehicles with 1 Regular + 1 TX in the rear with no issues. The center of your car will also be the primary target so you want more focus there so you get that time to slow before they start fishing for the edges of your car.
