After Market Reversing Camera And Front Sensors

[ipsgit]

I have a 2009 tourer with rear parking sensors, but without a reversing camera. I want to have an after-market reversing camera and front parking sensors fitted. Has anyone had these successfully fitted and could they recommend a supplier and installer.

I live in Ipswich. Thanks for looking.

Welcome! I have rear camera + sensors but to be honest I rarely use the camera as I prefer to still use the three mirrors & sensors,(it feels weird looking down & not back!) old habits die hard I guess. I have never felt I would have hit something if I did not have the camera so I would save your money on that. Front sensors,now that's a good idea & one I would like! I did approach my local dealer who quoted around £400! not had it done. I have looked at DIY kits but I know little about car elecs & especially CanBus?

Not exactly what you asked, just my opinion for what it's worth!

I'm with saxo on the reverse camera... Save your cash, you're better off with sensors. The camera in mine is excellent if you want to reverse up to a line in a car park, but it's useless at revesing up to a car behind you.
