Yep you have investment in your roads and some form of town planning, certainly looked 10 times better when i visited you a few years ago. Wider roads, better surfaces and plenty of places to park.

But you have to admit, the new Leon doesn't have the greatest of views out of its back window. :) The old one wasn't brilliant for all round vision either.

Scott, I'll go back & edit your shopping list to include remap too - you seem to have left it off by accident

I was thinking about rear parking sensors, but the vision in the ibiza is not great and I have managed without them!

I presume your looking at aftermarket ones? Would you fit them yourself?

They come black and get painted to match the bumper colour. I think there is some flexibility as to placement.

My dad bought an M3 covertible last year and that had rear parking sensors which were coloured to the bumper, but they were still visible and I think they reuined such a lovely car.

Maybe I am just being picky but without seeing pics of a leon with sensors I cant really make up my mind, but I have a feeling I wont go for them. Each to their own!

LOL. There's no way I'm drilling holes in my bumper. :-o

The dealer can fit the official seat kit or an aftermarket one. Will probably go for the Seat kit.

Scott


Scott, what price have they given you for fitting the Seat kit??

I'd be interested in them fitting too.

For the wife of course!!

There's a kit that says compatible with the FR - that's the one you want.

Scott
Cheers Scott.

Is this the one ZGB000052296 for £125?

Says at the top "rear Parking sensors" but in the listing says four ultrasonic sensors fitted in the front bumper.

I take it the front bumper is a typo mistake?

That's right, the view isn't great. But you could get used to it, I'm more worried about my alloys...

SEAT Rear Parking Distance Control System - ZGB000052296

Thats the one Rich, being fitted to mine. Checked this with my SEAT UK contact ;)

They come primered, but require painting. They are dealer fit anyway, so you can see them on mine to see if you want them. As mine is due to arrive in a month or so and it was built last week. :D

If you would get some pics up of them as soon as then Z please, I could maybe be able to get them onto mine before delivery.

Have you got any idea as to how long it takes from being built and at the docks to arriving at the dealers?
