Just fitted my reverse parking sensor kit purchased from Amazon BA118 LED 4 Sensor Car Reversing Parking Radar Detector £16.49 delivered!

Its the same one I fitted to my X-type Jag and I was so impressed with it, I decided to fit it to my wifes Megane aswell.

It has a display that shows distance and coloured bars left and right to show which side is closer, also has a speaker which bleeps faster as you get closer to objects.

Would really recommend it as its easy to fit aswell.

This looks a neat wee extra for hardly any money... i have my bumpers painted.. do u think this would chip the paint when they where drilled?

The paint should not chip. The hole cutter is very sharp and makes a very neat hole.

Put masking tape on the bumper before you drill the holes and you should get a nice clean edge

Looks good - how about a step-by-step "how to" guide to the installation?

thanks,
Pete

i had the same kit on my astra convertible , its so simple to fit you dont need a step -by -step guide,

and as for colour codded bumpers you can even spray the sensors with a light coat of paint so they blend it ,and it doesnt effect the unit ,

Looks great! Where did you tap the power for it from?

It gets its supply directly from the reversing light wire, so when you select reverse it powers into life. Really easy to fit, highly recommended!
