406 Peugeot Estate

Hi

I have just purchased a rear parking sensor kit from the local Peugeot dealer. The kit is fine, but the instructions are similar to an IKEA fixit kit. All diagrams and no words - not very easy to follow!

It would appear that the rear bumper needs to be removed according to the instructions, but it is possible to fit the wiring without taking off the bumper, which would appear to be a two-handed job. Also there are two photos which would appear to mean absolutely nothing to the general fitting.

Any advice would be appreciated

I don't think that last part is true - the sensors are ultrasonic, and the distance measurements are made by measuring the time between sending out a pulse and getting an echo from an obstacle. The speed of sound is

*much* slower than the speed of the signal down the cable, so the length of the cable won't have any measurable effect on the distance measurement.
