Parking Sensor Parts

Post by Raward » Fri Aug 02, 2013 8:59 am

Just noticed a loose wire hanging from L rear.
Further inspection shows missing L rear sensor, cover and support with no sign of damage to bumper.
?stolen? (If so "you bastard!")
Have been on realoem to get part numbers.
Anyway I am happy with sourcing the sensor off ebay for £22.
Anyone have any advice on sourcing the cover and support?
Look quite expensive for 2 small pieces of plastic!
Do I have to order them from US or would main dealer be the best?
Advice please.
Thanks

The cover is cheap enough from the main dealer. Someone knocked mine and broke the outer casing. Main dealer wanted £160 to replace, the cover cost £3.50 from the parts dept and took me 5 mins to fix!
