Can someone suggest a good parking sensor system?

[donk_316]

Too many close calls with parking curbs and my front bumper. XPel has taking a bit of a beating.
Really wish I front (and rear) beepers.

Is there a decent, possibly wireless, setup / kit that someone has used and can recommend?

AL priority?

Thanks!

Kinda wish they had those on the viper, then again, I usually park backwards. That being said, the spots that are at an angle require to park forward and that's how I poked a hole in my Elise's bumper...

Also looking for a solution, so far one option is to add a front camera and leverage the RAX software solution to leverage the factory display.

Many are for sale on Ebay....and cheap....some sound a buzzer as well as warn proximity to object,

I use one of these on the rear of my RV:

4UCAM WiFi Backup Camera for iPhone/iPad and Android https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HWB91VY..._liv2xbDS4Z4V1

It has its' own WiFi signal and an app for phone/tablet that you can open for the video. You could easily take the camera housing out of the license plate bracket and mount it somewhere up front. The RAX or LockPick are other options for hard-wiring and adding camera inputs and using that great factory screen.

why not learn how to park it better ?

Yeah, cause I refuse to learn how to park, you caught me...

Looks like I'm going to go with the AL Priority dual system. Includes laser shifters and integrates into the radar system. Runs a Bluetooth system so there is no wires to run and can also expand to gps track also.

Pretty good system. Not sure it's available in the USA though.

How did drivers survive in the past.....lol
I always back in as well if possible.

I run the al priority in the viper for a year now in edmonton, if you have any questions about install or use, PM me. Its a excellent system and jams all the pesky dragoneye vans sitting on the overpasses. www.kmph.ca is the dealer for them. Make sure you get 4 shifters and may as well get the MRCD radar plug in.

Thanks Redx, so far I've only got the dual system as it is mainly for front end protection. I'll look at the MRCD and I really want the Bluetooth module. I don't want added gizmos inside the car.

I like the idea it's modular. Add - subtract as your needs change.

Ouch!!!

You think the Viper is hard to park, you should try parking a Prowler!

The nose of the Prowler is like Jimmy Durante

You are going to want the rear shifters above your licence plate for photo radar.

Catch 22 here, if you mount your shifters low, you can have your front parking however you lose your coverage of laser protection as it would be mounted too low.

Park Zone is good for the garage.

Perhaps those drivers did not have have a counter top attached to the bottom of their front bumpers with a few inches of ground clearance?

There is also a basic system like this: https://fensens.com/

Also uses an app on your phone (via Bluetooth), has wireless sensors which use rechargeable batteries.

Have you got any tickets at all with the system red . Also have you been through any conventional laser traps ? I also live in Edmonton and am concerned about the dragon eye BS.

[donk_316]

I met a guy last night who is not LE but has a lidar gun and does independent testing on all these set ups. His go to for our radar/laser/MCRD etc etc heavy area is the AL priority 2 front 2 rear and some sort of interface to either the ALP MCRD system or another company who's name escapes me right now which has slightly better range.

Still looking at $3000-$4000 once everything is said and done, factoring your own labor or pay for it.

Can you PM me his contact? I would like to test out my system in various scenarios. I am into my setup for $2500 with all the modules/hardware/mounting, etc. Roughly 40 hours of labor on install(long, but very nicely done), ran along factory harnesses, looks oem.

No tickets yet, I have jammed dragoneye several times. Also been through a few speed traps with laser ally and pro laser 3. No suspicion or pulled over, I jam, slow down to the speed limit then turn the jammer to standby mode and give them a reading.
