    You will lose some performance, I wouldn't recommend it

    I plan to use a thick piece of clear plexiglass that will channel the receiving\emitting front
    of the head , this piece will fit in the space between the chassis\door.

    This is the general idea , it is hard to explain clealy , i should do more pics when i receive my sensors
    around friday.

    I used the same way with my li and the response toward my osprey is quite good .
    Too bad i dont own a real gun ...i guess nobody in the all province has such tool .

    Why not go with a piece of black molded plastic above the license plate

    Put it inside the headlight is more stealthy.
