help with reversing sensor fitting please
Hi all. I have an 03 tourer v6 and have some reversing sensors to fit. Can anyone give me an idea of where the cables from the sensors can be fed through into the boot space. I have had a look and appears that the bumper fits flush to the underside leaving no room to thread cables through. Has anyone got a little trick up there sleeve so I don't have to remove the whole bumper? Many thanks in advance for any help.

bumper off i am afraid.you will need to plug the sensors in etc apart from lack off access the foam infills will be in the way etc. as for the cables they run into the car via a rubber bung in the spare wheel well

Taking the bumper off is a nightmare till you've done it a few times - recommend getting a friend to help you at first - then you'll find it's quite easy to do yourself, after you've done it 15 or so times
Take all the bolts and scrivets out (top and bottom, rear centre; bottom just behind the rear wheels), then ease the sides off their strange clips (which are a bit like the sharp bits on razor wire). Then just pull...
