Hi to you all.

My first post on this forum. Perhaps an answer to my question already exsists but I simply overlooked it. Sorry for that.

I have a very Basic Freelander 2 from 2008. I´d like to install parking sensors but I don´t know where to make the electrical connection.
I am afraid to upset the Can bus system.

Any advice or help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi I've not read the thread but this may help.

If you only want reversing sensors buy a cheap set off ebay and power them from the reversing lights. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

Hi,
Thank you for your fast and very clear answer. I have a go at it on Monday and report how it all went.
Thanks again.

Hi to you all,

Yes, the parking sensors are installed and performing as they should. It turned out to be a straightforward job. A bit fiddly at times but ok.

Thanks for the good advice and help.

An update.

I mounted the system with the sensors in the numberplate. Easy, since no drilling in the rear bumper is necessary. But in the end it turned out to be unreliable. I have to sent it back with a warranty claim.

Next month I´ve got the time to install the normal system.

Perhaps this info is of use to someone.
