Aftermarket Parking Sensor System

Chaps,

I would like to install a parking sensor system in my '95 E320.

An internet company, Sports Import Ltd, offers an ultrasonic parking kit for $99.95.

Please see link: http://www.sportsimportsltd.com/2fr4reulpase.html
There is a 24 minute install video or pdf installation manual.

Anyone out there ever installed one or planning to do it?

Kind regards,

there is a guy selling some on ebay for like $50.00 that I have personally seen and they look good and work nice too. a customer of mine brought them to me to put on his ML55, and they looked greata nd worked great and install was not bad apart from drilling 4 holes int he bumper. the kit included everything including the special drill bit.

Thanks, Ashman.

I asked a coworker, who by the way is a scientist, and he said that I really need a shop manual for the rear lights connection. The holes drilling won't be a problem for me. The kit costs $99.95 and has a 1 year warranty.

Regards,

Orazio

shop manual for the rear lights? you don't need that, only a test light. just find the wire that turns on the reverse lights with 12 volts. simple enough.

an important question on the W124 is the bumper construction. You need o check the depth of the sensors and the space you have in the bumper, and the possibility to runthe wires from there. You need a cross section drawing of the bumper, I guess.
