Reached a milestone today. Everything under the hood is complete finally so I was able to shut that for the first time in months. Now on to the rest of the car...

Fitted rear parking sensors (after market).
More work than anticipated as R Design kit means no markings on inside of bumper and as such marking out a pain due to crumple zone behind bumper.
Just a note. "Fits all cars" it does, BUT, did confuse Canbus for a moment and on auto you need a seperate relay (£15) if you don't want it to beep every time you pass through R from P to D.
Other than that happy with job and more relaxed reversing in tight spots.

I cut a Volvo 740 saloon in half and used my Volvo 940 estate to transport it back to my house. It took about 4 hours with a Stihl saw and my trainers nearly set alight.
