    Hi
    need to install Maplin wireless rear parking sensors
    once 4 holes are drilled in in rear black bumper - how do you get the wires into the boot area ?
    the rear transmitter is wireless to the dashboard monitor - so no problem there
    kind Regards

    Easiest way is via rear air vent, once the bumper is off, you should be able to see it on the offside.
    Nothing to see here, move along..

    thanks for info - but is there any way to get the 4 sensor wires into the boot space without taking the bumper off
    and without any further drilling holes ( if a further hole or holes need drilling please advise the best position )

    Taking the bumper off isn't difficult, it's just a case of going round and removing the fixings, then it slides off easily.

    Found out a so easy solution !
    in the spare wheel well at 6 oclock position there is a large 30mm rubber grommet
    Make hole and wires pass through easily !
