I hope this is not in bad taste, but... Do you mean Spanish guides (joke) or some type of curb feeler?

When you back up, the senors at the back send out a pulse to detect objects. If an object is really close by, the indicator next to the turning wheel creates a beeping sound and the indicator bar gradually changes color to red.

I had it installed by the dealer when I bought my car.
You guys sure u havent heard of parking senors??

They are called backup or reverse sensors. If you do a search on those terms...you will find lots of info. You can even buy some (for 3G TL's at least) from a vendor here on AZ.
