Yeah they do m8, but have you noticed that they now hide the camera behind a concrete motorway pillar so the detectors pick it up very late. Personally i'm going for the Snooper S6-R Neo Plus

typical!

That snooper looks pretty cool m8 but the appeal of the road angel is that there is no extra wires except for power.

Although I noticed that the mini gatsos (like on the a127) are radar and not laser. This means it wont pick it up?

I can suffer a few wires if all forms of speed trap are covered thats the name of the game at the end of the day not getting caught. U can compare em' all on this page mate

Im thinking the origin B2 now. My m8 has this in his car and it works well (except for a minor problem with his flamer kit setting it off!)



these have a laser detector as standard and an optional radar detector to pick up the likes of the mini gatso's used on the a127.

U can also buy 2nd car installation kits so I could hardwire it in to both cars.

not cheap for all that though!

The radar add on comes out in august, it's been delayed as I'm sure it was supposed to be out sooner and I think it was about a ton!!
