Front parking sensor - under a dollar

Front parking sensor - under a dollar

Postby Kuff on Fri Oct 16, 2015 11:35 pm

My front parking sensor in the garage. Drive up until it bumps the windscreen, leaves about 50mm clearance between the back and the garage door and oodles in the front 8-)

Just got a tennis ball for 99c, a piece of string on a hook and used an old keyring loop on the bottom so I can hook it to the ceiling if I need to get it out the way.

How do you hold it in position when parking at shopping centres or nose to tail parking in the street??

Ha ha, he's a husky, you throw something and he just looks at you as if to say "What did you do that for?" He only enjoys runs (although too old for those now) and digging holes in my garden.

This car is like a bad drug habit. It is taking all my money and time, my family are concerned, but new mods just feel sooooooo good.
