    its cabriolets and vans ONLY

    Weird how it can be only for vans and cabrios. Do they reverse differently?

    Or maybe that's 'cause the fitting is thrown in, and every Tom, Dick & Harry will get it done if there's no restrictions?

    If you're an artist, it means throwing a crusty mattress in a warehouse, calling it art and living tax-free. cha-chiiiing.

    Brother done the same thing, €20 off ebay, fitted them himself with a little help from a friend

    Cheap hong kong reverse sensors...

    I've been toying with the idea of getting these but have been told elsewhere that they are poor quality because they don't give an accurate reading quickly enough i.e. you need to reverse VERY slowly to get an accurate reading on distance from obstacle - any comments?

    Thanks,
    super_freddie.
