Save your money and get an escort. You'll be much happier and the unit will perform much better then the cobras.

Passport totally. I can't tell you how many times that little passport saved my wife's butt and mine. You always know they are there before it's to late. With any Cobra I ever had it was like:


Beep Beep Beep...oh crap there's a cop, to late... "License, Registration and Insurance please".

You can find them for around $200. I have the Escort Solo S2 Cordless Radar Detector and just purchased the hardwire kit.

It's a great radar detector.
