Rear Sensors: Standard on the GT Line; are a must on the Wind.
Having driven my wife's new Jazz which also has sensors on the front I am tempted to have some on the Wind!!

I purchased the sensor kit myself on the net about £17 had it fitted by BMW specialist £120 .He did a nice job.The kit I bought included18mm sensors instead of the larger ones .Black gloss on black Wind .Well chuffed .

Re: Reversing sensors
“Rear Sensors: Standard on the GT Line” ? Thought they were an option, as not got them on mine and have pretty much everything else on it.
Have toyed with idea of fitting them but having experienced a rear camera setup on other cars would prefer that. Anyone done that?

Re: Reversing sensors
Yep, rear sensors were always an optional extra, not standard on any model.

Re: Reversing sensors
Mine were after market ones. Wireless that work great but occasionally pick up something that isn't there. Possibly down to the tarmac surface. I think you could get a version that had a camera.

Re: Reversing sensors
Hi guys....have been quoted £188 to have reversing sensors fitted (incl £20 extra for colour matching), by a firm in Sittingbourne, Kent. They look like a professional outfit and will come and fit them at my home. Is this a good price, or should I shop around?....I dont fancy doing it myself, and have seen Youtube videos where the rear bumper has to be removed.....yikes !!!

Re: Reversing sensors
Thanks Sweeney, sounds like my quote to supply and fit isn't too bad....think I'll go for it...especially after a near miss with a concrete bollard in the dark the other night !!!!!!

Re: Reversing sensors
Reversing sensors fitted ....not sure how I managed without them !! Never really noticed a problem in the summer, but reversing in the dark on a rainy winters night was a nightmare....and parallel parking mean't having the powers of Yoda....not any more !!
