skullyi Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Hi all! So given the latest task I will be undertaking I thought I'd scout ahead and see what options would be available! I'll be upgrading to Sync 2/3 in the next few days and I want to get parking sensors for my car. BUT I want to get them to display the distance etc on my wonderful new Sync screen. Does anyone know of any sensor kits I could use on my car that would offer this feature? I've done some research but I've come up with zip :/ I was debating whether or not it would be worth nabbing some from an existing Focus at a breakers yard or something and just integrating it with the car but it sounds like such a faf to get all the parts I'll need from the salvaged car. So I turn to you lovely knowledgeable people! any ideas/kits you can recommend would be very appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastachaz Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 If you want on screen then you need factory one not some aftermarket. I did rear sensors on mk3 wich its same , need all parts but first have to check if you have right harmness then needs to be activated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any info you can share would be greatly appreciated! I gather the activation is just using Forscan or something and an OBD tool to make the car think they exist.

Or have they updated it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
