might need a quad setup, with two in the upper grills and two in the lower grill. neither location is great on its own.

I think lower might be better, you can get them wider and closer to lights and fogs. Also do you have to run a plate? If not I would get a Fake plastic plate that looks real from a distance - Lure the LEO to shoot front and center to buy you time before he goes for the lights.

I took a picture of my car and using a basic computer program like "Paint" made a circle of estimated size of 24" or so and used the mouse to drag it around the image centering it to possible sensor locations. I found that lower and wider seemed to cover more area. It was too late for me as I had already mounted my ALP's but if I ever move them I know where they will go now.


Extra - That is a beautiful car for the $$$, it should serve you well!

I agree w/ Turbo,do a temp install on upper surface of lower grill w/ double-sided sticky tape 6" over from edge corners towards the LP.I'll sked some testing when you're ready.

Nah. No way would you need a quad. I have 2 on my vehicle almost to the ground and I still do very well.

for most scenarios but what about overpass or on ramp shots?
