What is the average price for the complete alarm unit (not only the housing mounted on the front right fender)?

No responses yet? That is really rare.

Well, here are some pictures of what I am having here. Any comments are very welcome. The unit is not working, it is empty.

They don't come up for sale frequently enough to have an average or typical price set on them. The dash mounted alarm is more common of course. The actual detector is a highly controlled device that should never have been released to the general public. I found owning mine to be a little cool and a little unnecessary. I always had a sense that sooner or later trouble was coming. Items like these chemical agent alarms, encrypted radio gear like the KY stuff, and/or demilled law rocket launchers and M60's all look great but for me drawn unnecessary additional attention. I've tried it all so I know :lol: That said I love it. LOVE it and I fully support you and your jones.

I purchased it in Europe and it is stored in my garage, not mounted, just in my collection. Won't talk about the price. :oops: :mrgreen: :roll: :mrgreen:

Be wary about displaying this with that little red sticker. It can cause some trouble

Don't worry, it is just for display, because it is empty inside. So, unfortunately, nothing secret anymore.
