I seem to remember the Brio catalogue has them for about £80 - £100 plus fitting.

The local dealer here says it would charge an hours labour, so your £180 is probably about right. You can also get a non fiat parking sensor too, dont know the price though.

Most car audio places can fit them, I guess there will be a variety available at different prices, i.e. the more sensors and the more discreet they are the more they will cost.

Some of them do look crap, but some of them are very discreet, like I said, its down to how much you spend!

Seeing how high up the rub strip is on the Stilo 3 door, i'd assume the sensors are going to be below this strip, and therefor look mince! At least when they are on the rub strip they are diguised a bit, and don't spoil the flow of the bumper so much!

I used my built in parking sensor (good parking ability)! Its other cars that drive into me that need fecking parking sensors! The rear of my Stilo bears the scars of some other hapless driver!

Yes, I have them on the rear bumper.
Two black pods.30mm across.
Works very well and you can adjust them yourself for distance.

I have them on mine, very discreet and they really work, better than you think they will....they even warn you of things to the side.
