In Hong Kong, I saw W203's with the parking sensors on both the front and rear bumpers as well.......

We don't get this in the US.

My dealer said they can install the back for $500 and $800 for both front and back. Maybe they are aftermarket ones?

it's just a back-up sensor, if you don't get oem, parts along is less than $50.

My car has the parktronic-system.
With sensors both on the front and rear bumper.
It's a pretty handy feature.

I can take some pictures of it, if you want to see how it looks?
