    The "Interference Detection Only" message tells you you've killed, does it not? And even if I were to "miss" I would be running a 3 or 4 second LID timeout anyway.

    The only way to make it visible to the dashcam is to mount it in a spot where I wouldn't be able to see it myself (or mount it in the middle of the windshield!) And then it still won't be visible in bright daylight, and at night it's going to light up like a disco. Cop says "I shoot this car and the windshield lit up, and I couldn't get a reading right away... hmmm..."

    I may have to experiment with a location like Tman has his though, just to see if it works there (and if I can SEE it there!)
