Has anybody used Dolphin direct for parking sensor purchase and fitting?

Any good?

Any other recommendations?

Appreciated..

Try Meta Targa SR2 - they fit behind number plate with a sensor at rack end. Have had them on a Civic for 5 years and the pick up about 300 mm each side of rear of car, and can be programmed to ignore towbar, no good if you want to carry bikes on the back and don't pick up kerbs behind car, but pick up everything else. Better if reversing lights are on tailgate as you can connect everything up easily - just have to worry about where you put buzzer, you can buy a kit with a dash mounted display and buzzer for a bit more.

Thanks. I won't be fitting it though I need to hire a fitter. Also installing front and back. Some of the links are dead.

I used:

and am very content with them. I did not get the optional LED display. The beeps are more than adequate.

My only regret is that I did not also get the front ones as well which would be very useful in tight spots.

Highly recommended.

I have used Chameleon, http://www.fittedparkingsensors.co.uk/ three times on various cars and never had a problem. I have only gone for rear sensors each time, but the paint match and finish is very good.

I used Dolphin rear sensors on my Jazz I never had any problems with them and they worked well, I fitted them myself but they do have a register of mobile approved fitters and quote a fixed price for fitting if you order through them.
