Does Tech Package interfere with radar detectors?

Discussion of Infiniti's amazing (and underrated) sport-luxury crossovers, the EX35 and EX37. For 2014, the EX series will be renamed QX50, in line with Ininfiit's new naming conventions.

Does the tech package interfere with a windshield mounted radar detector? e.g. would it cause the radar or the laser detection to go off all the time?

On my g37 vert - don't have tech on the ex35 - the tech package does not interfere with my radar/laser detector (escort 8500x50) if I keep the detector well forward (towards the front of the car).

Thanks. I moved it to the top of the windshield On the upper right side of the mirror to the opposite side of the LDW sensor. It works fine now.

I have a passport 9500ix though and the GPS sensor is still taking a couple of minutes to initialize. I think it doesn't have the best view of the sky from this location.

Why don't you go here and post.

Remember that there are many frequencies in radar bands.

When in doubt you should call the experts to get their advice.

According to this site http://www.laserprotector.com/propark.asp the ICC and police LIDAR both operate at 904 nm--so there could be some issues (if it's a laser detector) with picking up the signal your bouncing off of the car in front of you.

Also came across some youtube vid link of a guy showing an Infiniti set off a V1.. can't view it now, so I don't know how valid it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ar_OKdTLcs

Anyone else notice you can actually see the LIDAR sweeping on your front camera if you have DCA on while pulling into a garage?
