Call me a big girl's blouse but ......

I've just spent 2 hours in the rain fitting reversing sensors to my Tam.

Well chuffed - I can now actually reverse easily and leave a 1 foot gap instead of 3 feet.

Anyone know if TVR have an owner's suggestions box 'cos I think they should fit them as standard.

Big girls blouse.

Waaaaaaaah!

[chris watton]

Bloody puff!!

[madbadger]

You did ask!

Seriously, though. Sounds good. Was it difficult to fit?

I have to park within about 6 inches of my climbing wall to fit the car in the garage. Assuming I want to shut the door.

I was very impressed with Chris W's rear view camera, but put off by the cost.

I s'pose the air bags & abs'll be next!

..and to complete the job you could buy a BMW badge off ebay..

Fitting was very easy if rather wet.

2 sensors on brackets screwed into the underside of the fatarse (TM) boot on either side of the metal bracket where the number plate attaches.

Holes drilled through into the boot at the back of the 3 lower lights section.

ECU wired into the reversing light and velcrod just under the boot light.

Buzzer fed through the driver's side of the rear wing at the top of the boot so that the 'ping ping ping STOP' noise mysteriously appears around your right ear.

All wires easily concealed behind the boot carpet and holes filled with TVR magic universal fixer AKA Evo-stick.

Job done.

Oh and the kit cost me £12 (including P&P) off Fleabay.

I fancy this idea myself!!! My girlfriend has them on her MINI and they are awesome. Can you post some pictures and tell us the make, because I am quite keen on doing this myself!!!

[rfisher]

Think the make is Gemini but any beeper based kit will work.

I didn't want one with a display that has to be rigged up near the dash as that would probably not look too good in a Tam.

I'll take some pics this week if someone can host them for me.

Email me and we can add it to the Tamora site! Perhaps if you can add a few words on your technique.

Now one of those would be quite handy for the front of a T350. I bet many an owner has heard that terrible scrape when misjudging where the end of the bonnet is

Sagaris front spoiler.......

At least you would have a beep to listen to when you smack it to bits on the kerb you misjudged
