How to parking sensors?

kenord · 2005-02-15T10:33:30+00:00

I have a Y reg Toyota Avensis with fairly flush fitting bumpers and Ineed to fit parking sensors. The bumpers are the best place I think.I want to do this myself as the installers are failry expensive nearme, but I don't know what's involved. The wife has already cost me=A3500 in damage to other cars by reversing into them so I'm trying tosave money on the install. If anyone has fitted these to a similar carcan you tell me how you did it please? I think I have to remove therear bumper, drill the four holes for the sensors, and perhaps drill ahole into the car body to the boot space for the cables too, and that'sthe bit that's scaring me. I don't want the stick on ones as there'sstill no obvious way to get the cables into the boot.

I put a tow bar on one and found somewhere quite easily to put the wire through (I don't remember drilling it), the bumper is quite easy to remove as well
