I have the front ones, not really worth it. Practice your distance & you will do better than the safety margin the front sensors factor in. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

OK thanks for the advice. Because of the way the front of the car slopes out below the edge of the bonnet I find it difficult to judge how much space there really is. Have not hit anything yet... |

Practice against a wall. Get out of the car & have a sticky beak, you will be surprised how much room you have. Repeat until you have a feel for it. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

If you have a problem with the FL2 with its relatively square profile you’ll have more of a problem with most more modern cars. You can at least see the end of the bonnet/hood and so have a reference point. Just about every other car or van I’ve driven recently have a bonnet/hood that curves downwards and are featureless so no reference points. |
