i dunno specifically, i think theyre legal in perth? maybe, but im pretty sure theyre illegal in melbourne.. i know in sydney they carry a $1500 fine and 9 points (no that isnt a typo) so personally id just use the guy ahead of you...

ive got an old one im thinking of selling, got no lights and s**t, just a beeping noise, gets quite a few false alarms from petrol stations etc but its difinately saved me on heaps of occasions
ur gonna wanna be spending at least $500 for one that does a really good job, u can even get em in places like kmart now lol is it true that we're the only state in the country that they are legal in??

To all of you who are interested in these. This site has everything you need to know. Once I've resprayed my car I'll be ordering one from here.
Even with $60 US in postage they work out heaps cheaper. http://www.radarbusters.com/ Also, I'll probably be buying some later in a group so we can save on postage by getting it all posted at the same time.

Got a friend that bought in a couple. Was selling them to friends for 600 each, 650 if you wanted the blue version. Saved my brother a few times, until he turned it off as it kept beeping at him.
 Some people!

Yup, same what happened to me, 3:45am in mid NSW was not even speeding, $1173 fine, and they took the dector away |

Yep, legal in WA, but they can do you for obstruction of view out of your windscreen or some crap.
in answer to the original question, a lot of people use the Bel RX65 or the 990 - there was actually a thread not too long ago on here, do a search. I use a Whistler and that is decent too. |
