Thanked 7 Times in 7 PostsI got some sensors for £13.50 and some colour matched spray paint from Volvo for £13.99 and fitted them in under an hour. I can live with turning the radio down when reversing to be honest as its not exactly the most difficult thing to do.
Its so easy to do you have got to be a bit mental to pay the money quoted above. £230 or £450 from volvo. Im even more pleased with my handy work.Last edited by crespo; Tuesday 9th February 2010 at 18:46.

I did think about sensors for a while, but I fitted a camera to the taigate & hooked it up to my head unit.
Seeing is believing!
You think I know **** nothing! But let me tell you I know **** all!

Thanked 870 Times in 621 PostsParking sensors, I ask Mrs PA to get out and tell me how much further I have to go back before I hit something.
If she's in a good mood she'll do it, otherwise I abandon Christine.“If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls who live under tyranny.” Thomas Jefferson (1778)
Did you know the EU says that you can't claim that drinking water prevents dehydration. So now you know for sure what many of have known for years that the EU is run by a bunch of nutters.
