Retrofitting oem parking sensors

[Dean]

To retrofit oem parking sensors to an 06 e85 would I just need all the parts listed here?

And obviously a new bumper.

I'm looking at getting a new car and the only thing it misses is PDC but I'm willing to remove it from mine and take a hit on the sale price, if it's possible?

There is a BMW document on doing a PDC retrofit on these cars, which includes a list of required parts. If you PM me an email address, I can email you a copy of the PDF, or you may be able to find it with Bing or Google.

UPDATE: You can get the instructions here: http://www.unofficialbmw.com/images/6182EN.pdf.

You could prob get away without a new bumper by drilling the correct size holes and sticking the sensor to the bumper.
