BMW Parking Sensors - Best Place to buy?
Discussion
Can anyone suggest a good replacement set of parking sensors for my '04 645Ci?
I bought a set from ebay (£25 for 2 sensors) and installed them but perhaps not surprisingly they are rather pants. The replacement sensors seem to only be sensitive to about 30cm, anything further than this and they register no audible or visible display - the OEM sensors continue to work and display as per usual. I went to the car the other day to find one of the Ebay specials now not responding at all!
My local BMW dealer seem to think that the sensors are not available separately and come as part of either a retrofit install or with wiring at an eye watering price of £150 PER SENSOR (£1200 for a set of 8!).
Has anyone bought and used any of the replacement eBay kits that they can recommend worked well or fail that, is it possible to sort OEM sensors?
Cheers.
