I know the guys at the M5 forums did a GB on the lidatek laser diffuser last year for around $350.... I would be interested in purchasing this unit. Not a bad price fo $350-375 if we could do it.

I heard there might be a new model coming out soon. the LE-30 or something like that. That's what the Hawaii distributor told me.

let me know if this is confirmed.

MSRP is $349.99 as per the http://www.lidatek.com website. Wouldn't you want it cheaper than that??

Just FYI, there is a good review at http://www.audiworld.com/news/03/lidatek/

(edit - added link)

i've seen this on bmwm5 as well
any testimonials here on the effectiveness? experiences, anybody? or are they like those stickers you stick on your cell phones to increase reception? :D

and aren't these highly illegal, James?

I don't think KS uses laser too much, I've been 'instant-on-k-banded' a few times here though.

but despite all that I am still interested

According to the website.
"The LE-20 is legal in every state except California, Utah, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Virginia, Nebraska, and Washington, D.C."

As for the effectivness, there are some very convincing reviews.

I would be interested in a group buy, depending on the price.

any info about a new version in development? LEt us know.
I would be in if you could get the new version.

Have any of the vendors thought of doing this?

Aren't these things easily stolen/broken? I'd love to get one, but screwing a $350 device to the front bumper seems a bit unwise . . . to say the least.

Nevermind, just went to the site - its not a license plate frame system. I'm down!

Matt, Micah....... GB... Yes?

does this thing actually work?

The links in the posts above provide some good info and tests on the Lidatek system. And, they give it some good reviews. So, I guess it does work.

If anyone's interested i have a brand new Lidatek le-20 still sitting in the box. I bought the one with two transponders. I was going to use one for the front and one for the rear. I dont really drive the car much so i never had the chance to install it. I paid $450 for it. Just looking to recover as much as i can. Email me if you need pics of it. I will take some tonight

Thanks
:wave:

The two boxes. The one on the left is the extra transponder.
