It's in, and it's AWESOME.
With the exception of the VEiL, my anti-radar/laser setup is complete.
The VEiL will go on when temperatures are consistently above +10*C... had a couple days where I almost went ahead with it (+8*C), but I'd rather do it properly the first time.
My apologies, the Jeep is rather dirty. I had the front heads installed vertical instead of horizontal (does not affect performance) to blend with the front grille.
I had the unit's power and audio cable hardwired into the vehicle so I didn't have to worry about using another power point and having cables all over my dash.
The mute for the detector is nicely concealed near my HVAC, which is right level with the shifter. Also, the on/off switch for the jammer is installed in an open switch plate (even though it's a lease, sorry Chrysler!). And not a word about the coffee I spilled near the shifter.
The LED is mounted flush with the panel over the stereo, so you can barely tell it's aftermarket.
So far, I've caught two Ka band (mobile photo radar) and jammed one police laser (103 in an 80; I turned it off when I got down to a legal speed and let him get a reading, didn't even bat an eye at me).
Worth the investment!

One thing I would suggest is going with a different jammer. While the Blinder M20 is an AMAZING system, there is a new one called the Laser Pro Park... it is marketed as a "Parking sensor"... it is actually a parking sensor and a DIODE-BASED LASER JAMMER in one. This is particularly useful where laser jamming is illegal or frowned upon... "But officer, that's a parking sensor." Diode-based jammers perform better than LED-based ones... next vehicle I get, I'll sell my Blinder M20 to a friend and install a Laser Pro Park in mine.

The full setup, including professional install, was $1,100 USD. It saved my butt this morning from Instant-On POP radar this morning in a construction zone.
