Replacing my 3G radar

In replacing my 3G radar, the entire process was easy- HC staff were extremely helpful throughout the process. From testing the old unit to identifying a 'plug and play replacement and required adapter, everyone was available and informative. I'm almost looking forward to the next foggy day.
