parking sensors

[fabes]

Less than my insurance excess

had them on last cars (both mine and wifeys)

Now have the Merc and a 1 year old Zafira with out them

Hate having to actually look where I am reversing ;) (joke...but true)

Network Q can supply and fit two fins that sit either side of the reg number plate, and look quite good (better than the stick on Argos sets)

But they want £170 to fit to the Zaf and have said same for Merc:crazy:

Anybody know a better solution / kit or supplier ?

Don't really want to shell out the £350 per car for the "in bumper" solution and I am not really upto doing a good (enough) job myself

RSVP again

Thanks

You can buy a Cisbo kit on ebay for £30 and it is an easy job to fit yourself.I have a 220 CDI and fitted it no probs And it works ok.

Stick on sensors John Kerr ?

Auto Express have done a survey on several & recommend Quanan Q2030S.

My local dealer uses X Vision but pricey to fit.

I think Jaymanek can arrange to have kits fitted. Try a PM to him :)

Hmmm....?:confused:

Thanks

NOT a DIY man - as the job I did fitting a pairs of stick ons to the previous Megane (they did work) was a pig and taping wires over boot lips a pain (I hid sounder in boot, it was enough)

I may go the NQ route as they 'promise' to provide invisible installation

Cheers - will try to remember to keep y'all posted

They are just a well known brand in the alarm industry, they supply many oem manufacturers..

I had the 4 sensor system fitted by Halfords to the g/f's car and they are great. They have a display mounted on the headlining by the rear window showing the distance in meters and which side is being triggered. They even colour coded them so they blend in perfectly.
