Hi, I just purchased some reverse parking sensors, but the display is on the mirror. It clips onto my rear view mirror and when I'm in reverse shows up as as an LCD image on the mirror. Installing them seems like a bit of a bitch.

Drilling the holes and putting in the sensors is fine, but it's the rest of the stuff I can't do. I'll probably need an auto sparky to run the wire from inside the roof trim to the boot, connect wires from the sensor hub to the reversing light and to connect the detectors from inside the rear bumber to the hub.

Anyone have any idea how much this should cost? If I do the drilling myself.

It's actually meant to be DIY kit, but I'm clueless when it comes to anything electronic..

I went to their shop, quoted me $180, so I just won it for $80. Not bad.
