Parking sensor replacement pre-painted options

[dhracer]

I've got a faulty reversing sensor which I need to replace, is BMW the only source of pre-painted ones? The car is SG so a black ebay job isn't really an option.

Apologies if this has come up, couldn't find anything in the search.

Replaced one a while back, I just sprayed mine with an aerosol before fitting- Looks and works fine.

I also had one more recently that I thought was faulty but turned out to be the connection on the module in the boot ( behind the carpet on the drivers side to the rear of the wheel arch). I pushed the connector in and out a few times and it's been fine since.

Thanks both, Pdcexperts have them at a decent price. I'll double check the connections before I order

Hi bladeowner edborg here, I'm taking on board your advice re. park sensor module location, I have intermittent fault and I found it very useful to try connectors first, but in the event that I have to replace a sensor is there a tip for removing and replacing.

I have a 2004 automatic 2.5
