Thanks Hotel 21 - just what I was after.  I can easily work from that.

It's an easy enough job to do (must be if I can tackle it!).  The ebay sets for about £16 are fine - I had a CISBO kit on my last one, carefully sprayed up the sensors and was still fully functional after 5 years.

Just have a spare pair of pants handy for when you attack the bumper with the drill and remember, you can't measure too many times!

Oh and use masking tape to stop the drill slipping  :y
Have same brand on my MV6, been on around 5 or 6 years.  Had to replace 1 sensor....

Hi i fitted front and rear on my estate with a monitor  on the dash that tells you the distance and witch censer is near an object
i put the control box  in the left rear boot panel and run the main cable under the carpet to the front engine bay to the front censers
and the monitor  on the dash by left pillar and run this wire along roof lining behind door trims to  the rear 
 bumper comes off by 4 screws at top of bumper under rubber  and 2 screws behind fear wheel and side pull out by clips and and underneath more clips
there is just a  foam block in the bumper
put masking tape along the line of the censers so easy to mark instead of marking the paint
and put a cloth sheet on floor to stop marking the bumper when its on the floor
and i had to drill a hole behind rear bumper into the boot to run cable to the control box
 they cost me about £80
