Mine become 'live' when braking but can be a PITA when the nose dips & they go off when not really necessary! I reckon if ever I need a new front bumper I will refit them as high up as possible so no/much less chance of this happening?  :y

Do some Migs have front sensors then Phil(iss)?

Not at the factory. AFAIK.

I still fail to see how either front or rear sensors are an improvement on looking where you're going. If, for example, you're looking at BMW's reverse sensor screen, you're looking in completely the opposite direction of travel!  :-? :-?

I thought that before I got mine, but, they're superb

I did the 'forward, forward, forward *THUMP* that's the wall then' trick the other week.. not used to a car with a bonnet that long & tapered (you can see where the MR2 ends quite easily) - and our work carpark is incredibly tight on space.

Reversing sensor is great for reversing up to a low car (like the MR2) too - where you can't see the bonnet of the MR2 at all - your view starts at the windscreen upward..

My only concern with the omega is clattering a soon to be fitted irmscher front bumper when parking up to a high, or even normal hight kerb. Front sensors would help there IMO but personally don't see the need otherwise as the stock bumper is high enough with a rubber lip just in case.

the Irmscher front bumper is a bit of a pain and you have to stay well clear of kerbs when parking front end in - mine is scuffed on the underneath.

going back to rear reversing sensors the Phaeton has a light system in the roof above the rear seat which you can see in your reversing mirror - oh and I have a reversing camera as well but that was an extra!!

You'll soon develop a new habit ... reversing into parking places ... ..

a bit tough with the diagonal parking bays though

Not always possible obviously.
