So.

Looking on ebay they are getting VERY cheap.

ie. 8 sensor kit for $50.

Now, question is, how hard are these to install?

Apart from drilling holes in the front and rear bumpers, do the bumpers need to be removed? or can you get to the other side otherwise?

Cheers,
Dean

When I got mine done, it was through a crash repairer. The bumpers need to be loosened and pulled out a little (don't need to take it all off). This is to protect whats behind it when drilling and makes it easier to pass through the cables into the boot.
How are you going to wire up your front ones? Via a on/off switch?

There are kits available now which contain both front and rear.

How much were you charged to get them fitted?

Mohit got he's supplied, painted and fitted by Selmax in Box Hill for $199

About $150 to get it painted (2 light coats to match the saphire pearl colour, not too much otherwise it'll interfere with the sensor) and fitted. The car was in to get the footrest re-welded under warranty. The painted the sensors the proper way. Have used high pressure washers lots of times since and no flaking at all. I wired the main controller to one of the reverse lights myself and placed the beeper in a cavity on the rear parcel shelf and is clearly audible.

One thing to note though, which I'll do eventually, is to put an isolation switch to make it easier to turn the unit off (instead of unplugging each sensor) when you tow things.

:bowrofl:pretty sure that'd blow the budget. Petrol is expensive!

150-200 is good though, I should be able to cut it down a bit more by getting them to fit the sensors only, and doing the rest myself.

mine were installed wen my rear bumper was replaced/repainted during repairs, so they were painted over in sable black :)

Only problem with that is that the white sensors may not match the white used by Mitsu. Its better to buy a non-painted black unit and get the fitters to paint them properly.
