Anyone have pics of the sensors, up close on their car? You can PM me if want.

Thanks,
Rick

 

 

I dont think mine are all in a row like that. I think the ones on the ends are raised.

 

They barely show up on the NBP

 

rkilian, thanks for the photo! so, how do they operate? Is it just a beep beep beep...or is there some visual cue as well, like in my 745?

Thanks
Rick

 

There's no visual cue. It's just "beep... beep... beep... beep-beep-beep BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!"

 

Where does the Beep come from?

 

There is a module, part of the kit, that gets installed uncerneath the rear deck (thorugh the trunk) and this is what makes the beep sounds.

 

Jss1 ever told me that the side and rear sensors have different sounds, the rear 2 are low frequency and the side 2 are high frequency. Both operate independently so you can tell if your getting close on the side, back, or in between.

There is nothing that distinguishes between left and right but since the side ones operate at a much closer range (under 2 feet) it should be easy to see.

Questions for all of you with the sensors installed...Did you have your dealer do it at purchase? How much did it cost? Does it work with the navi system at all?

 

independent from nav

 

Cost??

 

$578 (what Acura states on its website). Worth every penny....

 

They are FUGLY, particularly in light color cars although they are undeniably useful.
