So to stop the inevitable tears (mine) when my T gets home from a reverse to close.

I would rather walk abit further to get to the shops than get my T damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The genuine Ford ones can be put in afterwards.The sensors have to be colour coded (well they dont, but look terrible if you dont get them painted!)From what I have heard, the genuine Ford system is very good.Hope this helps. :bluegrab: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friendly parts vendor? Me? you must be thinking of somebody else.... :lol: Trade price is $520. That is not fitted. You will have to get your local Ford dealer to reflash the ECU to recognise the reverse system, as it plays through your audio system.This price doesnt include colour coding either, I can organise that if you like, or you can sort it out yourself. You'll be amazed what a spraypainter will do for a box of beer.... :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just great. No looking in the mirror anymore while reverse parking. Highly recommended :bluegrab: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to be sure, just don't park behind her.In any case I never park to close to people that have tow bars.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
