Agreed .. A non-essential driving aid ... however .. I have this thing that if it is fitted to the car it should be working properly... which is why the powersounder was replaced and the reversing sensors will be sorted.

At present I have a hole where one should be ... and it is NOT staying like that !

OK .. I could stick a failed one, leave the speaker unplugged,  and no-one would know ... except me.... but it would not be "right"

Thanks for the thought Chris ... but it's all far too difficult !!! 

Seems my vehicle is "Special Order" according to AndyC and his computer - I think this is the full Irmscher kit as "factory fit" .. and I have different sensors to the normal ones. Mine are sort of rectangular with rounded corners and 3 pin socket, "normal" ones are round with a 4 pin socket.

Whenever you speak to anyone - except AndyC - they are adamant that the round ones are the only ones .. so I get the wrong parts. Have bitten the bullet and ordered new ones from AndyC.

Sad

AndyC strikes again ... parts just been delivered .. and they look EXACTLY like the one I've taken off ... (except for the paint .. which is on order from local dealers )...

Just need it to stop raining so I can drop the rear bumper to fit them next, although I might go and plug them in just to see what happens .......  Smiley

many thanks Andy .. prompt service appreciated ... again ..  Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up!
