Sensor fitting

Can't remember the price but there was a place on the Sandford Road in Ranelagh called ICE (they do a lot of in car mobile phone stuff) who were significantly cheaper than car dealers for getting such sensors fitted retrospectively. I know a guy who deals in second hand cars - if he says it's a good deal it usually is!
 
Re: Sensor fitting

The garages just send the cars to places like ICE and then charge you another 50/100 on top of what they get charged!
ICE parking sensors start from 350 Euro.
There's also a crowd called Getronics (beside OMNI shopping centre) who also do it for around 320 Euro.
If you are any good at DIY/CAR ELECTRICAL, you can buy the kit yourself for around 50 GBP (6 sensors and all the leads) and drill the bumper and attach them yourself.
If you google it you will find them easy enough.
You can get colour coded sensors so they don't look too bad.

Small note
Never have the radio up loud when reversing as you won't here the bleep, bleeep, bleeeeeep......BANG!

Parking Sensors

If your passing through Carrick on Shannon they have a parking sensor kit for € 45 and it looks good..
It's a pound shop type store with a great selection of tools and I saw these kits there on Saturday. the shop is between the Bridge and the market square.

Just wondering if any one has some more up to date info here?
Can still get them on the web for £50 at [broken link removed]
But would prefer to have them installed by some one who knows what they're doing.
Two options I've found are:

Both come in at about €380, which seems a little dear for what I understand to be 1-2 hrs work.
Any one found anything cheaper?

You're not paying for just the time.. you're also paying for the skills and experience which you want. And you'd also get a guarantee and a warranty perhaps.

Doctors charge 60 Euro for 15 minutes.. this is because of his skills.

It's likely to take longer than a hour to be fair.. perhaps two hours or three., I'm not sure.
