Default Re: Reverse Sensors

I got some on mine. Bosch Parkpilots. They're supposed to cost about $600 new, but I got them via e-bay for $150. Did cost me $300 to get them installed, though. If you've got half a clue about automotive electrics and using a hole saw, you could probably do it yourself.

As for the look, they're reasonably minimalist and the small "beeper" installed on my rear left pillar works well - I can hear and see it as i look back to see where I'm reversing.

Here's a pic of the sensors themselves.



And a pic of the beeper in place.
