Fitted rear reverse sensors on the number plates, plus some photos of my rear view mirrors with reverse camera which is long overdue
Buzzers on the rear nearside, planning to install the fronts one fine day.......

Look good but have to say it's expensive for reversing sensors. I have to think about it....

Regards

Indeed they are. However, the rear one at £42.99 is a lot cheaper than normal. It is normally £55-£60. I have a rear META plate on my car, but will be removing it soon, when I put on my genuine Volvo rear sensors. Will let you know when the time comes in case you are interested. Unless if you want to fit genuine volvo rear sensors too....

You know me if you find itand it's easy to install I take it otherwise I can take the ones that you are going to replace.

Please add that to your spreedsheet under my name.

I've had genuine Volvo ones in silver for a year now. Was planning to fit it on mine, but I have now got hold of matching colour ones for mine, so I will be fitting those instead....
