Anyone got any close-up pics showing position of rear parkings sensors?

If possible factory fit & dealer fit please?

I'm thinking of fitting my own & would like to see the exact positions on the rear bumper for mounting

Nice pic of the rear sensors which are fitted almost `invisible`
Are these factory fitted?

Excellent thank you, do the dealer fit ones sit as flush as these or do they protrude?

Hi,

Our new 500 had its parking sensors fitted by the dealer, they are a little different to the ones posted previously but look perfectly fine. They also work very well and are as loud as most other ones I have heard on other cars.

I do have photos but can't post any yet sorry!

Nice looking 500 with tasteful finish !

My daughter has just picked up a new fiat 500 with factory fitted rear parking sensors.There are only three sensors.....is this right.?

Yes, on later models they saved a few p per car by only putting 3 on.... It works fine on mine though...

As I have mentioned before, I had dealer fit reverse parking sensors to my new TA Lounge, they were colour coded to the car colour BNW. However after washing the car and general use I found the paint lakes off the sensors revealing the black sensors. In hindsight it would have been better to keep the black contrast rather than continually touching up which never really blended in with the original body colour

Hugo's parking sensors are factory fitted and only have three.

Must be an economic cut back

They still work very well and constantly remind me I need to cut the hedge back on the driveway.

Could be that the sensors are now more effective so they only require 3?
