Retro fit Parking Sensors

[James Parkin]

Hi all,

Recently purchased a Cali. She's a good spec, however she has no parking sensors (which I think is a necessity given the size and limited visibility with the vehicle; especially living in Sheffield!). I'm wondering if anyone has had this done to theirs retrospectively too?

I preferably wanted to go via JCT 600, however they only offer rear acoustic sensors (not linking to the dash RNS 510) for circa £240.00 minus the colour coding - which I find ridiculously expensive.
I've enquired via some local private specialists and the best quote has been £600.00; quote including front & rear sensors, colour coding for both and linking to the RNS 510 so it displays the outline of the vehicle etc like factory fit - which I find reasonable. The parts they're using are OEM LazerLine. Has anyone had any experience with this product?

Any advice and potential reassurance is welcomed.

James

For anyone who’s interested in doing this and stumbles upon this thread, it can be done. You just need a good coder as JCT won’t link sensors to your dash nor provide front sensors. It cost me £600.00 supply and fit. They’re a bit sensitive compared to your factory fit, however you can’t tell the difference.

Just had ours done with Paul at http://professionalretrofits.co.uk. Front and rear,as per factory.Even fitted sensors to rear bumper using VW punch,rather than drilling. Excellent company to deal with.

Talking about parking sensors , has anyone fitted 360deg view parking sensors to their Cali - these are the ones where you get a bird's eye view of the van? Would be interested to know. Thanks.
