I have a limited mobility in my neck and find it a little difficult on occasion to twist my head far enough around when reversing spin so have been thinking of fitting Rear Parking Sensors to my S2 the same as my other car.

Has anyone done this, any guidelines and suggestions very welcome. Halfords do then and fit them but dont feel very comfortable withe the idea of a 16 year old (or thats how they appear) drilling holes in my P&J

If you want to fit your own my friend across the road has a pile of them in his garage that he's trying to shift - he let me have a set for a tenner (I'll have to confirm the price, he may have had a generous moment that day), though to be honest thats about what they cost on ebay anyway. The ones he has are just a beeper - some have a tacky little display that you have to mount somewhere.

I am thinking of fitting some on the front - I spend most of my time driving round in an MPV with no bonnet - then when I get in the TIV I struggle to judge the front and have walloped a high kerb a couple of times when driving into parking spaces.

Hi Chris
Put me down for two sets if they are about a tenner so I can beep both ends, just let me know and I can send a cheque

Me too, and doesn't it pi55 you off, I mean its not as though you can blame anyone else and there are usually a couple of people admiring the car as you do it.
I have found that the boulders used as edgings in peak district car parks are the awkwardest to judge.banghead
