Cool Electromagnetic parking sensors

Will be doing an install on these "no drilling" electromagnetic parking sensors.

1. Power source. We will be tapping into the reverse light bulb to power the unit. Pictured is the tail light harness for a pre-lci car. The black wire is positive and the brown wire is ground for the reverse light bulb. Put the car into reverse and use a volt meter to confirm.





2.Running the speaker through the cabin and hid it inside my rear light dome.







3. Take off your rear bumper and apply the magnetic sensor. I applied it about 2" from the top lip. *Make sure you don't apply too low because there is the crash bar on the car that can interfere with the sensor strip. Clean the surface with paint thinner and take your time measuring and applying the sensor strip.



This is the wire to the sensor strip



Put everything back together


I must say I'm impressed by this product it appears to work great, will check back in after some more usage. It cost me about $30 shipped if anyone is interested
