retrofit parking sensors on a Passat
« on: 05 June 2013, 21:07 »
this is my dad's 2006 passat, he wants to retrofit parking sensors mainly at the rear.  Old dog, new tricks  :rolleyes: has anyone done it? I got a quote of about 300 quid just to buy the kit from my local dealer on top of another 300 for installation. ANyone knows how can i get a kit w/o spending a fortune?

Loads of cheaper aftermarket DIY kits available which are simple to fix.  Here's one example: http://www.parkingsensors.co.uk/?source=gpsg&gclid=CMPt1__cyroCFbLJtAodJ1EANg

I bought cobra flash fit a0358 and a0356 for my golf from http://vag-shop.co.uk, Paul from Professional Retrofits installed them for me. really good job. I think he's added some pictures on his website as well:)
