i have factory installed radar detector installed from new.. i know the item is old but ive never seen one like this... it mounts in the bumper with a module next to the steering wheel below.. it actually has saved me from tickets but i think its worth something since it has porsche name on it and it is limited production.
whats it worth experts?
thanks

Is the first time I hear about this....It works on Ka band?

 

i would think so... another cool feature is that it tells all the newer radar detector that thers someone hitting them with radar, it funny to come behind someone with a radr dectector and turn mine on, especially when speeding!

 

Way cool.... I havent heard of it. You should post photos of the device.

 

wait so it doesn't scan for cops shooting radar, it shoots the radar?

 

that means that it's leaking X-band.

detectors generally need a reference .. the older detectors put out a signal that would be just as bad as a radar gun.
The newer ones ( past 10 years ) do not put out a signal & can identify a signal from another detector.

I am a former " Electronic Warfare " person in the navy and would have to be able to decieve missiles using their own radar, so I think I have a clue.. to say the least.

It may be worth some money as a museum piece. I'm sure there are people here that have a cassette player still in the dash cuz it's factory. There's no harm in that.. to each his/her own.

State of the art, I think not.

well i wonder what its woth to someone cause it would help me with making improvments to my car

 

My 924 had a Porsche handheld CB radio that plugged into a port under the dash and then cut out the radio and went through the speakers in the car. To this day, I have never seen another one.

I guess Porsche had a few cool little features like this. . .

Please post up some pics of this detector, I am interested in checking it out!

 

one day i was on ebay looking for one and i found the same one but it was made by the actually company My car is in storage but ill get some pitures up soon... ita about 7 inches wide with two switches... one for sound and one for sensitivity in the middle it has the porsche badge ans says designed by porsche

 

its saved me from three tickets even with todays technology

 

It isnt a factory detector, it is an OLD K-1XX detector. It might have been installed by a dealer but it isnt a Porsche item.

I could be wrong but I am about 99% sure in this case.

Hmm, pretty much all CB's have this feature. It's the "PA" (public address) function, and it's usually just a switchable 8 ohm speaker out.

 

well i know its not a genuine porsche part but porsche bought the rights to put their name on it cause it has porsches name on it

 

Let's see a photo. I don't think it's a Porsche part. I have a hunch someone just put a porsche sticker on it.

 

Too bad you gotta be a Member to try to sell it here.
