Cheaper/easy install alternative to rear parking sensors
I got my TSX a few weeks ago and was contemplating a DIY install job for rear parking sensors until I found this (http://www.etrailer.com/Electronics/...HM60100VA.html) and decided giving it a shot.
Installed it around two weeks ago and must say the system works like a charm. I was also able to install it with relative ease and you cannot even see it until you look closely. I would definitely recommend it.
Will post pictures soon...

Here are the pics with frame installed (with smoked lenses)
(Routed the wire under the trunk lights cover)
In all was a very simple install, used the reverse light connector for wiring and stuck the speaker inside the trunk. Didn't had to take off inner lining from the trunk, just the one behind the lid. It only had six clips to be taken off and reinstall.

I was wondering the same thing. How reliable is the detection for the two corners of the bumper? For example, the last few angles when you are maneuvering out of a space.
