Back up sensors

[mamichula]

I need backup sensors. Ive seen the ones available around LP they only come in black. Iam not sure about it because my car is red.

And I can't imagine black backup sensors riveted on a red bumper, not sure if it'd look okay. Is there a red backup sensor? My car's habanero red its red-orangish or sumthing is there an available backup sensor close to this shade?

It's okay... Toyota installs black colored back-up sensors on their cars.

Fords come with body-colored sensors from the factory, but I don't know if these are available as aftermarket items.

Ford's backup sensors are reportedly Audiovox sensors. Had them installed on my Everest. They are also paintable, which means you can have sensors which are the same color as your car's body. I find these sensors very reliable. In fact, I am so confident about their reliability, I don't look back anymore while backing up.

True, they're very good and very sensitive. They have a better viewing angle than the ones I've tried on Hyundais, Mitsubishis and Toyotas, and they don't have an irritating buzz like some of those systems do. Plus, the fact that there are three levels of warning (beep.....beep at around 2 feet+, beep...beep...beep at under 1 foot, and beeeeeep at under six inches) allows me to park within an inch of our tight garage's wall.

Which is why I'm pissed that one of the drivers actually hit something while parking... ...the dolt...

Curious lang po. Pede po ba yan ilagay ng mas mababa to check kung tatama na sa gutter?

I think back-up sensors come in black in its stock form. People just have them painted to conform to the body paint. I'm not sure if painting the sensor would affect its sensitivity though.

maybe your driver looked back while parking...hehehe.

there's a height specification for installation, if i am not mistaken...in any case, if installed properly, it will sense even the road gutters

audiovox nga. punta ka sa shop nila of the same name sa Shangri La mall. meron ako nun installed in my car and i'm very satisfied with it though i have not tried any other backup sensors to be able to compare with. anyway, as in most cases, you get what you pay for.
