Front parking sensors in Italy?

[papinist]

but how this will be integrated to internal electronics? No other market in the world has front parking sensors.. why Ford should develop something only for Italian market?

If they care so much about us, why we haven't a printed brochure yet?

The point is will these sensons work simultaneously with the stock rear sensors or you have to turn on/off manually with another switch?

Parking sensors in the rear are standard, but the dealer can install front sensors if you do want them. I was told, € 600,00.

Wow! 600 eur just for the front? And aftermarket product?

I installed rear parking sensors in my Alfa Romeo GT for 30 eur.
They works flawlessy and are like stock one, not the type that protuding from the bumper.

I know, I had to wash it

Installed by the Ford dealership.
Original Ford Equipment, guess the same as build at the rear.

Ford.no are offering Xvision (SCC) (??) parking sensors for both front and rear as an optional accessory to the 2015 Mustang. Maybe Italians get this free of charge, it's about €118 (rear) and €149 (front).

If Ford UK offer front sensors I'm having them. The front is a long way away...

It was the only thing I spontaneously reacted to when test driving it. The hood was soooooo long I had so little confidence when pulling up to anything, and didn't know how close I was. Good thing the license plate holder is nice and big ;)

You probably learn it fast enough though once you have the car.

True, and after 2 weeks driving I can confirm, but would still consider it as VERY usefull option, you're not always equally concentrated and some times in a hurry...

Every time I get in my old rat car BMW E36 it feels weird not having that long hood now. The first impression of the mustang hood was scary but now I really enjoy driving this tank!

Just those grooves going down the hood made me giggle knowing I'd love this car from the day I bought it. I thought I'd add some white stripes just because I can see the hood now, and can enjoy them every time I sit in it!

But yeah, front parking sensors would have made more sense than rear sensors, for me. We already have a great rear camera, so I don't get the mentality behind offering rear but not front.

Has anyone installed this system?

P.S. It is cheaper through eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/I-SENSORI...FRONT-PLATE-/160903358965?hash=item25769669f5
