    While I could make the current ALP head fit with grill mods, I would really prefer not to have to mod my grill.
    The Twist and lock connector will not be changing any time soon. We have too many existing customers and we have to make sure if a sensor needs to be changed that they can keep the existing wiring in the vehicle and disconnect the sensor and replace it with a new one. If and when new sensors are ever developed they will be backwards compatible so again wiring would not need to be changed to keep installation costs down and give users the ability to replace sensors without going to a shop and running all new wiring.

    Then perhaps another way could be implemented allowing you to remove the cable from the head to allow these sort of installs. In this suggestion I did not have the ALP in mind, but what ever succeeds the ALP in years to come, I know this could not be implemented here and now in any way but I am sure there is some way to make the connectors skinnier, even if it is a head minus the din connector with a straight through to the control unit with only an RJ connector as a possible option?

    suggestion possible could u make a small cut in a sec of the grill to allow a little give in the plastic to get the cable through , hope fully the cut part will spring back into position and with a little help of super glue, always hard with new cars but as time goes by it will be forgotten

    As well have said in other threads I am uninterested in cutting the grill.

    Question Suppressed alerts ALP Android app

    Is it just me or does the ALP Android app still alerts on the phone for suppressed lockouts? Example, I come up to a K-band alert for the first time, the phone alerts me with sounds and visuals as it should, perfect. I confirm said K-band alert is a false and suppress it on the app. Next time I come up to the same suppressed K-band signal, the app still alerts me with visual but no sound. Is it possible to have to app and ALP not alert me at all (no visual and no sound) for suppressed (locked out) signals. I only want to be alerted for newly encountered signals or signals that where not suppressed. I drive in an area with lots of false K-band alerts so I suppressed the ones I know, but my phone still lights up like a Christmas tree too often when driving pass these known false(suppressed) alerts.

    That is proper function. App is allowing you to the presence of a radar signal but it does not alert. It give you visual notification and the ability to unsupress it if you choose.

    If that is the proper function then I think we need another toggle to make it work the way redliner is suggesting as well because for those of us that have the app configured to bring itself into focus when an alert is triggered are getting the unwanted visual.

    Muted alerts don't bring the app forward. Only if the app is already in front will it show that there is an alert that is suppressed.
