I just installed a full parktronic sytem in my c class. I need to get it activated from Steve still. 6 sensors in front and 4 on rear. Dual Displays, with warning buzzers and dash PTS switch.

Sunman, congrats on your ride man...you have dun so much "plastic surgery to your car....NICE.... Hey i see that you have the folding mirrors... how much is that and will it work with my car which doesn't have memory seats?

SUNILP

I do have some extra parts available if anyone is interested for another parktronic system install or just rear of someone wants. The folding mirrors are really easy to upgrade to. Approx 30 minutes of work and that's it. YOu can get all parts for the folding mirrors from STeve.

sun man, will it work with non memory seat cars? i heard there might be a board switch over or something at could be costly. is that true? i don't have memory seats for my car.

The parktronic will work with your car but the mirrors may not. The cars that have power seats also have a control module in the door capable of transmitting signals for the folding mirrors. If your car does not have power seats, chances are that the control modules in the doors are the basic ones that can't support the signals for folding mirrors. The best way to check is to open your door pad up and get me a part number for the control modules. I can tell you then.

Is the Parktronic difficult to install?

what is needed to take apart? interior, bumper?

You have to remove most of the trim pieces on the bottom of the entrance of each door. The you have to route your main harness in the car. The front part goes through a rubber grommet under teh passanger footwell. Route that to the front bumper. Then route the rear the same way on the right side of the car in teh cable duct all the way to teh rear bumper. The main connector fits under the passanger carpet. That's where the unit is mounted. Then another portion of the harness routes to teh left of the car. It crosses over in the middle of the car infront of the shifter. You have to remove the center console. THat wire goes all the way into the back to the rear SAM module. It plugs in there. There are 2 connectors to the rear left. Ones for the rear sam unit and the other is for the overhead rear display. Next You'll have to get a coat hanger and route the rear display harness to the rear Dome light. You can put all the rear trim pieces back together now. You'll have to remove some of the trunk trim to route teh wires in the trunk area. Next, a short harness goes from the dash to teh control unit. There is a CAN connector on the right side of the passanger footwell and the 2 pin connector plugs in there for the CAN signal. The front bumper has to be removed for the front sensors wire harness. I did the rear without removing the bumper. Actually, it's not very hard to remove the bumper at all. That's it. Oh, I forgot to mention that if you do the front and rear like I did, then you have to replace the top switch row with one with the parktronic button.

Thanks Sunman for your Overview...


This sounds like a professional job to me... at least few hours process...

I'm just worry about vibration in the car once I take the car apart and put everything back again, something might be loss...

Sunman,

How do I take the side panel off of my door to read you the PN for the control module.
