Back-up sensors?

Anyone have them? How are they? Is it worth it?

Don't have them. But it seems working and useful. Without it, you probably need a little learning time to get used to the tail of 04TL.

If you don't have backup sensor or good driving skills, you will probably risk yourself to damage your rear bumper or anything behind your car before you learn how to backup your 04TL. IMHO.

So far, except how it looks, most of ppl are apparently satisfied this backup sensor.

Anyone by chance have an ABP w/ the sensors installed? Any pics? I've seen pics someone posted of their NBP w/ the sensors and they looked pretty good. Thanks!

does it just beep or is there something like a display that tells you as a bar meter how close? I was really thinking about this since while i do have a good sense for the car now, you never know if someone uses it or if its just one of those days.

thanks

Backup Sensors

What an immensly stupid design appearance wise. They're a visually disgusting joke compared to the factory supplied backup sensors on EVERY OTHER MAKE OF CAR....and my dealer's GM agrees! Makes me wonder the IQ of their designer at Acura. The Abyss Blue and Black are the only colors they're even passable on.

I'm seeking aftermarket alternatives. Till then, I've done the next best thing:
Check out the 9th post in this thread:

I've already backed into a wall in a parking garage trying to determine how close I was,
and all I had to do was wipe off the damage!
