Thought I'd post this in a new thread as some of you may be interested if you wear specs all the time like me and never find a place to keep the second set in the cabin.

The part number for the sunglasses unit is K1Z0868565FY20 they £16 less fitting. All you need to do is remove the alarm sensor and fit it to the new unit.

See if you like the unit with the sensor grills, should give you some idea of the fitment too.

I made this mod too, earlier this year. Very very easy and took less than 5 mins. Just be careful about detaching the sensor unit from its clips. No dramas and money well spent. The parts catalogue also shows a separate piece of profiled insulation which I bought as well (a few pence) but I never could see where it would fit! It isn't necessary.

how does one start to detach the unit from the headlining, please?

With care. You use a stiff plastic (Ruler) to get behind the unit and roof trim, put a piece of cloth so you don't mark the roof lining. Just lever gentle and the unit will come out. there are no screws to worry about, its just got clips.
