Definitely do not count on the laser detection saving you. The reason we get such great radar detection is because the radar is so sloppy and it bounces off of lots of other things whenever it is activated (including cars, pavement, tree's, signs, etc. A laser is very refined, it is a very tight beam so by the time you hear it then you are most likely already being clocked. Think of it like a flash light vs a laser pointer.

I have a built in K40 in my Mercedes and have been VERY pleased with the results but I have not been clocked with a laser yet (knock on wood). It has what they call is a laser diffuser which is supposed to act like a laser jammer but I have no idea if it works... Radar jammers are illegal in most (if not all) states.
