Is it necessary to remove the rear bumber to fit reversing sensors to the Octy? Looked and there doesnt seem much chance of getting a hand behind the bumper, would removing the 2 lower screws from the bottom of the bumper allow enough access?? :confused: :confused:

Definately not necessary as I did it without removing the bumper.

Remove the black centre strip & there is plenty of room as there are holes behind the centre strip.

How do you remove the centre strip?, does it just prise out (carefully) with a screwdriver? :confused:

Yes - Start at the ends with a wide bladed implement (screwdriver !!)

Does this work on the Fabia range?

Do you have enough photos to post a complete idiots guide to fitting your own reversing sensors?

With apologies to the thread starter,

Bandit,

Each time I see yours I think why do I have black trims, or in fact on the boot I have a white bumper splitter, not the green. I wonder if I can source a green one, kind of want to restore it to it's wrc state, but without the stickers.

Sorry Colin, You kinda lost me there !!

Mine had (had as I sold it ) Green painted bits on the bumpers but black inserts. No inserts on the doors (the stickers were there).

Wonder where it is now ??

Starting to regret the sale !! (well missing it anyway).

So if anyone sees YR*2 VGL I would be interested to know who has it !!

PS,

I do have enough pictures to do an instruction , I will write it in the next few days (does someone want to host it ??)

Graham, just upload the pics to your gallery and create the article in here
