2.Band LEDs modified
3.Signal LEDs modified
4.3M "Dual lock" fasteners (better than velcro)
5.Brand new mounting plate
6.Two sets of hook up wires
7.Original package

O YEA BTW ITS SMALLER THAN THE ONES I'VE SEEN B4 BUT IM PRETTY SURE THE WHOLE PACKAGE IS THE REAL DEAL SO LEMME KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS THINK

STOP SHOUTING!!! But anyway... tickets are the result of bad luck,speeding, or stupidity, and a combination of all those. Radar detectors will allow you to alert you if a Cop is using a radar gun on you. Let me remind you that it is not a Cop detector. Although it may make u feel secure having one... you gotta start by what kind of tickets do you get? Assuming its for speeding... slow down f or another 18 months so traffic school can clear up again!

oh yea...and i hear V1s are one of the best. And for $90? seems too good to be true... but hey.. if you got it.. then you got it.

yeah, I'd say start with the route cause...and stop speeding/driving wreckless. As if the whole Nick Hogan thing wasn't infuriating enough....

I've got the Whistler 1753 and I love it. It does make me feel more secure, but I've never had a ticket and never been pulled over for speeding so I don't think I needed it. Just makes me feel better I guess, lol.

ha.. ive had a X50 for about 2 years, ive been hit 2 times for speeding on the highways (75/60. so not terribly fast), I got rid of it about 5 or 6 months ago, and I gotta say the only sure way of avoidance is absinence, an RD can only do so much



and for the record, its a modified remote diswplay that youre pointing at, not a whole Vi

I just have really bad luck man, I've takin the driving school like 3 times and always get a douche of a cop to get me going 8 to 10 over or not using my turn signal. I still want the V1 but I really doubt I'm getting this one.

"This one" is not a V1, its just an accesory for a real V1, nothing more, it will NOT function without the full $400 brains to the outfit......... either way though, just remember that no RD will help you if you dont know how to really use it, and a good way to learn is to get used to spotting cops without one, and learning the signs of when to slow down without it having to go off first...... in the end if you dont know what youre doing even a V1 is a $400 Magnesium paperweight giving off a false sense of security

great i knew it was to good to be true, i feel a lil dumb, but thats why i asked u guys first! I'm not looking to be invisible from cops but it would great to have a little help. But I have a good and *nearly free* lawyer that gets me outta paying for tickets so i think i wanna slam my car first, a lil wreckless but i'll only have my CL for a few more years might as well have some fun with it.
