Hi all, I am wanting to fit the front PDC. Are the sensors the same for all 4 positions or are there any differences ?
Also if anyone has a front kit with wiring then would be interested
Thanks
Aaron

Sorry, this is incorrect, the actual sensors are all identical, the control module (which is mounted behind the nearside rear side panel in the boot) has 3 plug connector ports, 1 for connection to the vehicle systems, 1 for the rear sensors and the 3rd for the front sensors.
The module determins which sensor(s) are giving a signal and calculates the distance (and hence the frequency of the tone) to give audible distance 'bleeps'
In theory to add front sensors you need four sensors + the plastic holders and the relevent wirng loom 
The wiring diagram is here http://www.disco3.co.uk/gallery/albums/userpics/17007/413-13.pdf Never get mad - get even !!
