i bought them from dubai for only 2 dollars but they work perfectly!!!(drill included). i like them better than the stock ones

Lionel, did you ever post that race video online? Do the parking sensor work or are they just for show? You would have had to plug the old hole I suspect.

Nice to see you're not posting in caps anymore.

tell me more about the sensor... how to instlal and where you bought them. i want them too

lionel great to see that you've done some mods to your X. it loosk awesome!

Lionel - great stuff! However, don't fail to mention that you have to drill through an inner bumper wall which is I think half an inch thick! Sounds and seems simple but you have to take down the whole bumper if you want a clean install. I did the same mod and installed a 3 pc. PDC sensors on the bumper. I used OEM ISUZU SUV PDC system. Installation is not as easy as it seems. Just my 2 cents.

yes i had to take down the bumper and that wasnt easy for me!
the drill is easy to use and the pdc(i used diamond pdc system) fit in without problem.

the only problem is that it cant see the road pavement while parking (dont know if the stock pdc can see it ??)

can you give the instruction for wire up from gear to the front?. Thanks

OEM PDC system is better positioned horizontally.Because of the shape of the bumper they're pointing slightly down,but enough to read/see some bumps on the pavement.Especially if your driveway has a slope so you'll hear the Beep if you back up to the street.
The solution would be to place them closer to the upper edge of the bumper.

Edit: I tried to upload the pictures and the size is not correct,I just don't want to bother resizing them.
Xoutpost Y U NO Update the attachment engine and make it a bit up to date for no upload hassle?

As recklessspyder mentioned, what about the original sensor holes? How are these plugged/covered? Have you got any pics of this?

[diyanich]

OEM ones are going into the unpainted part of the bumper and it has some mounting housing for each sensor,so they are aimed horizontally.
