Looks a nice neat job, well done. I don't think I'd be quite so brave - I know my limitations and I'd certainly stop at drilling holes in my bumper!

Nicely done,

Looks just like it was factory fitted.

You must have stocked up on brave pills to drill those holes! :D

:thumbup: Good job there, does look really good. Definately don't think I could drill those holes.

Very nice neat job :thumbup:

I just training training and training on the small part of old bumper, found in a dust ;)

I'm glad that was a practice and not the real deal :eek: :rofl:

NIce job Andrey. I thought you'd find the locations once the bumper was removed.

Just the long wait for the connectors and you'll have it all fixed up.

Did the wiring diagrams I sent you match up with what you've found in the car?

Can these sensors be got for the rear? I thought the retrofit jobbie had different sensors that did not sit flush like the factory fit.

I want these for the rear of mine.

I have a Cobra parkmaster sitting in a box at home but I dont like the look of the sensors.

Brave lad

How much is the kit?? Wonder if this would fit Patsy...

Top work btw! :thumbup:

The come from the contact in CZ.

I don't think they'd be any good for the Passat Tom as they are for a CANBUS car.

Trevor, they probably could be fitted to the rear but I'd need to dig out some wiring diagrams to be sure.

The control unit is mounted in the boot (Nearside I think), when adding the fronts you simply swap out the rear only controller for a new front inclusive controller and add in the wiring.

Stu, thank for diagramms. I do not connect the sensors to the new controller

yet because as I wrote you I forgot to order one small socket and now waiting it. I think everything will fine, I will write here in any case.

like the factory fit.

I used factory set of parts, it is not accessory. The sensors for rear are the same (they partnumber is common forall modern VAG cars - VW, Skoda, Audi, may be even Bently :rofl:), but the they holders are different.

For the rear kit ask Stu, we use the same supplier in CZ. I alredy have rear from the factory so I needed add only front.

Another one pic. After car wash today. (Sorry for poor 16 inch winter wheels)

Seems odd seeing it with the wheel trims on and not the usual alloys.

excellent job mate and brave for trying

Thanks, guys, for a good words!

Seems odd seeing it with the wheel trims on and not the usual alloys.

It is 16`` wheels (not alloys) with Audi A3 trims (I placed Skoda logos on it myself :rolleyes: ) for a winter.

very nice job Audrey

I love the wheel trims but I would have stuck with black steelies.

I wonder would these sensors be compatible with the Cobra Parkmaster as I dont think I would bother with the CANBUS only connect to the rear reversing light and get the power from my towbar wiring.

Stu can you PM me a price for the 4 sensors to fit my rear bumper?

Thanks.

I don't have a price as such but I'll certainly find out if he can get them, how much he charges for them and let you know.

I would imagine it would be as a complete kit though - not just sensors.

I have to say I find it easier to use one of these

A nice clean edged hole every time - no brave pills required

Nice job but whats with all the "you're brave" stuff :rolleyes: - I got the DeWalt and a 20mm cutter out on my rear bumper last Sunday - 350 miles on the clock!!!

Measure twice, cut once..............:D

Hi,

what kind of drill you used for making holes in the bumper?

Thanks..

Google 'step drill/cone cutter'.
