Detectors are a no no, there is a story of an english guy being caught with one and the gendarme made him drive over it as punishment.
plus dont take pirate cds with you either they are stating that if you cannot produce the original within 24 hrs you will be prosecuted.
[:O] Sacre Bleu!!
We had one of our van drivers made to do this when I worked at my last company. Dont take detectors or put them in the boot. There are more speed cameras appearing but mainly round main cities.
Generally dont speed too much. I generally drive thru at about 90 without problem, and still get overtaken by alot of cars. Roads are quiet and progress is good. You cant get points but can get fined or even put in prison if serious enough an offence.
Personally I would only stick some black insulating tape on the headlights. If you check Foxy's website I beleive he had a pic of where they need to go. Most foreign cars dont do this when coming here after all. I have left either on or off with no probs. However note that they are currently trialling the obligatory use of dipped beam at all times so perhaps recommend this now.
Above all have a good trip. I want to move back....sick of things over here.
