Hi all,thinking of getting a PCD kit for the car,

First of all can any one recommend a good non OEM kit & would i have to buy the bumper strips that take the sensors from the stealers?

Or could I use the strips I already have?

Thanks in advance

Is your parking that bad?

 

You can get a cheap set up from somewhere like checkpoint

 

But ask Mymanhood as i think he may have the Pdc for the e36 coupe and he aint fitting it

Please let me know how you get on with Fab.

In December I emailed asking about a PDC kit for my E39 touring and got silence for a reply.

Am now thinking of just getting the OEM kit, not too much difference in price, less hassle, plug n play, plus my bumper carrier should already have the holes drilled out so that would knock a bit off the price?

The OEM kit apparently includes the bumper carrier, I just need the bumper strips, sensors, ecu & buzzer.

LOL! Just get your missus to give you some parking tips!  You would be better off contacting fab direct and getting it off a crashed car! Probably cost you 50 quid tops!

Yeh, I'm starting to go down that road now, don't really fancy the after market ones.

But i might just forget it for a while too, still got other more important things to get.
