    Thanks for the warm welcome..

    I was able to post a question in a section of the forum which seems closed for me now. I guess something went wrong there
    Anyway, i will have the Bel and the ALP built into my Golf on Wednesday and Thursday (also an additional Alarm)

    I was most interested on the sensor locations, so i can discuss that with the car shop.
    Te intention was 1 sensor in the front and 1 in the back, but i got a reply in the other thread which sort of said to place 2 sensors in the front and 2 in the back.

    The back seems hard to cover on a VW Golf mk7, as the only easy position is above the number plate, and that is relatively far from the back lights.
    Also it is unclear if the law enforcement is allowed to laser from the back, as that would be a negative measurement. I need to look into that.

    I could move the 2nd sensor to the front to have better coverage there, and later update the back. The sensors are quite expensive over here (about $350 in dollars). Also i haven been chekced only 2 times in over 2 years, so there is not that much laser here (only in city area's) on the highway they use mobile radar setups.

    You should be able to see that Thread "Advice on Placement" b/c you are a "member" on the Forum now.

    RALETC did some AL-P testing last year w/ only 1 Sensor.....the Test results are posted on their Blog site:
