REVERSING SENSORS FAQs

Will I be able to fit them myself?

Yes provided that you are a reasonably confident and capable DIYer.

I've got a bike rack; will it effect the sensors?

If you have a system with sensors mounted into the bumper it could be a problem. We recommend:

1. The underslung mounted sensor system PARKING PARTNER-PP2. The parking partner has a very neat, dash-mounted display, that allows the driver to see in the distance (in metres) and has an audible warning system. 2. The sub-mounted MW650-4DSM, flush mounted systems MWE650-4DSM or MWE850-4DSM. The Distance Signal Memory (DSM) eliminates background objects from the sensor zone, like your bike rack.

My vehicle has a molded bumper; how will the sensors fit in it?

call us for an answer.

I've got a tow-hitch; which one is best for my needs?

Again, the MW650-4DSM, MWE650-4DSM or MWE850-4DSM would be suitable as the Distance Signal Memory (DSM) eliminates background objects from the sensor zone. The PARKING PARTNER-PP2 is also used for vehicles with tow-hitches and is easy to install.

I don't want to drill large holes in my bumper; what are the alternatives?

Sub-mounted sensor system MW650-4DSM or an underslung mounted sensor system PARKING PARTNER-PP2.

I have a Land Rover vehicle and some 4x4's. I would like an ultrasonic reversing aid. I particularily like the "distance readout display" facility on the MW600-3 and as far as we can see the MW800/4 does not have this. Is there a system which gives a distance readout in metres and has in-bumper mounted sensors?

If you are fitting onto an off-road vehicle there is a possibility that the sub-mounted sensors can be dislodged. We have available the MW800/4 which fits inside the bumper rather than underneath. The MW800/4 has a mini display with 4 LED's on it, each one representing a different sensor. These light up in a traffic light style, so green is safe, amber means something is very close and red is stop immediately. As you get closer the bleeps increase in frequency. However, it does not tell you how far away you are on a digital display as the MW600-3 does, nor does it have the range. The MW600-3's range is up to 5 metres away for large objects, whereas the MW800/4 does not activate audibly until you are approximately 1.3 metres from the object. Your best option is probably just to buy a kit and possibly provide some extra protection around the bracketry area without obscuring the "view" of the sensors.

The MW600-3 has been updated and replaced by the MW650-4DSM and the MWE650-4DSM. It is now possible to have a flush mounted reversing radar with a display giving LED distance markers and a numerical readout. July 2004

I am interested in purchasing one of your reversing radar kits but have a couple of questions. 1. What is the difference between the flush mount and sub mount sensors? 2. Can all the sensors be painted without affecting the performance?

The flush mounted sensors fit inside your bumper, which means drilling a hole in the bumper and then clicking the sensors into position. The sub mounted ones go underneath and are held in place with brackets (supplied). The Parking Partner has wide angle sensors and thus only requires two sensors. You can colour match the sensors, providing you use an acrylic "touch up" type paint - as this is a non-aggressive paint which will not cause corrosion.
