This is going to be our control box. This is going to be our speakers. We have four parking sensors. These are going to be our mounts for the sensors. We have some double-sided tape. This is going to be our power cable for the box. As you can see, when we have two wires, we basically just need 12 volts and ground. And we also have this drill bit to drill the bumper. Now, before we install anything, you need to make sure that your parking sensors are working. Now, whether you buy them from a reputable company or online, everything is made in China these days. So, so you need to test it first. I’ve connected everything. And I’m just going to connect these two wires to the battery, positive and negative. And now when I take my hand down, you’ll see that everything is working fine. Okay. Next, we need to take off the rear bumper. I’m going to show you all the screws that need to be removed. You can see, I’ve lifted the back of the car a little bit so I can get to some of the screws more easily. Okay, on the wheel arch, we’ve got these three 25 torx. And we also have a 10mm screw on top. So, the other side will do the same thing. Then, we need to remove the tail light. Here you have a T27 screw. And, uh, you can just pull the tail light out. Under the bumper, we have four of these 8mm screws that need to be removed. The rest of the time, it’s time to paint your parking sensors. Get some paint from the paint shop, from the color of your car, and add a few light coats for the perfect result. Now here’s the most important part of the whole thing. We need to drill the holes for the new sensors. Thanks to the license plate light, I was able to measure to the center of the bumper, which is located right here. So my plan is to have the first sensor here 22.5 cm and the second sensor here which will be 45 cm from this first sensor. I’m going to do the same thing on the other side. Also, I measured the height of this area from this line to this line. And I’m going to place the sensors 27 mm below this line. So, the good news is that the hose is nice and clean and with crisp edges. Okay. Now, it’s time to put our mounts on. You want to make sure that this area is very clean. So, I’m going to clean it first. Now, I’m going to wipe it down with alcohol. Another thing I have to mention, you can see these lines here. You can actually bend this mount to fit the size of the bumper. Here’s a very important thing that I want to mention. I’m not going to install the mount like this without installing the sensor first. I want to make sure that it fits properly. For that reason, I’m going to put the sensor on before I install it. Okay. I’m going to add glue here. And I’m going to install it on the bumper. And this is how it looks from the outside, then it’s almost perfect. Okay. Now, you see, I pulled this plug for the wire, and I basically guided all the wires into the trunk. Okay. Now, it’s time to do the wiring for our control box. I showed you this main power adapter earlier. So, you basically only have two wires. So, what I did, is, I’m going to put the 5 amp fuse here, if not. And on the negative wire, I’m going to put this connector that we’re going to put in the ground of the car. This red wire is going to connect to the reverse light. So, this green and black wire from our wiring harness is going to go to the reverse light. So, this is where we need to connect the red wire from the adapter. I’m going to splice it and solder it. Okay. So, here’s our power wire. You see, it’s connected to the black and green wire from the reverse light. And our ground is connected here, as you can see. Now, we’ll finish arranging the wires.
I’m going to secure the box with this double-sided tape that came in the package. And we’re going to stick the box right here. There’s a perfect spot for that. Now we’re going to connect the power. Okay, I’m going to plug in the sensors. And finally, I’m going to plug in the speaker, which is going to be this wide connector. There it is. And finally, I’m going to take the double-sided tape that I got for this little speaker. I’m going to put it on and attach the speaker to the plastic trim piece right here on the back. The main reason I put it on the back is for the volume. It’s a little loud and I think this would be a good place for it here. Okay. So, that’s pretty much it. Now I’m going to put everything back together and we’re going to try out the new parking sensors. Okay, so we’re done with this little project. You can see the parking sensors look great. The color matches perfectly. Maybe the only thing is the clear coating is coming off there. It looks a little different, but it looks great. Okay, now let’s see if our parking sensors are working. They’re currently silent. And when I’m approaching another car, you can see that the frequency is increasing. And as I’m getting closer, it’s beeping continuously. I’d also like to add that the volume is spot on and since the other sensors are at a slight angle, they’re picking up about 20 centimeters around the car, which would be pretty accurate.
