I've been using the K40 stealth on my '91 E34 M5 for one month. I had the laser jammer installed at the same time. I went for the K40 so as not to have any visible wires or unit on the dash or head liner. Piezo speakers were installed in the stock location of the dash midrange speakers. Left speaker alarm means radar up front right means rear. As well, the blank to the left of the fog light switch now houses lights that flash according to front rear detection.

I'm very satisfied with the system. The other day I was cruising back into town and the front alarm sounded(strong, not the single clicks as door sesors can send), but there was no cops. I slowed, and as I passed an on ramp Mr Officer was merging on and my rear detector went crazy. This on ramp was at a lower elevation and perhaps 75 feet to my right, with no direct line of site to the ramp until you are actually merging on. I thought it was great that the front detector gave me the warning, and the rear confrimed his presence(always look and use your mirrors too).

There has been a couple other incidences during the last month, but luckily I can say no tickets. Go for the K40, its worth doing it right the first time.
