    Afternoon

    So finally got the radar units installed in the rear bumper today and wired into the car etc. All seen ok and working well. Thanks to the guys I took coding info from back in MK I've got all that sorted and no errors in my dash anymore.

    Wing mirror covers and wing mirror led indicators have arrived at dealer (were on back order) so just got to get the new wing mirror covers wrapped to match the car (no need to paint!) and then swap them over. Should be just about there then!

    Few more pics

    Had to loosen tailpipe "tips" and swivel them down just to get more room to clip the brackets and sensors in. You can also see the wiring loom I ran in. That is neatly attached by cable ties to the parking sensor wiring loom

    Radar Sensor on left hand side fitted

    Right hand side radar sensor unit fitted

    System all registered in the car and MMI. Rear Traffic Crossing already works

    Cheers

    Yeah likewise. I miss it from my old car. Happy to do it again like any of the retrofits I've done.

    Update. Picked up new wing mirror caps and warning leds today. Finally got everything now. Will make up wiring today for these.

    Sending caps off to company that wrapped my car to wrap these and post back to me.

    Nearly there.

    Superb ! Following this with great interest as I'm up for getting the side assist and rear traffic systems fitted (although not as fussed about the exit warning)

    I haven't had the exit warning used in anger yet but rear traffic is good. Had it warn me numerous times when about to back out of a parking bay.

    Likewise. In the short time I've had the sensors installed even without everything all fitted the rear traffic warning definitely works. It proper slams on those anchors.
