A3 & S3 - Rear Sensors 07 onwards pics please

[NHN]

if i have an aftermarket rear parking sensor system, are you able to retrofit the factory fitted one? my plan is to have the '09 bumper fitted with the sensors that come from the factory. would this be (easily) possible, or do you reckon i'm better off reusing the ones i already have? i really dislike them because they're not flush with the bodywork and quite sizeable. however they have more pleasing "beeps" than the factory fitted one i had in my 2005 model.

Yes, can remove old system & install factory version & tbh its really upto you what you think is best as your the one seeing the sensors & hearing the beeps mate.

Okies I've got a '09 bumper with factory parking holes and am awaiting a call back from a breaker about sensors and loom. So I'm only missing module and speaker right? What else will I need to get it all
to work? Cheers nige!

How's Italy? And how's the new addition to the family?

 

[NHN]

Are you asking if I can install it or you want to do as I would make up a loom for the connections to the car itself.

Lets just say the 1st night at home was tiring, only cause the missus was snoring lmfao, Issy was very good as always.

 

[sub39h]

Glad all's well!

Ok so if you were doing it for me I'd only need the sensors? Cos yeah chances are I'm gonna ask you if you'd be so kind and prices permitting. Mind PM'ing me an approx cost?
