Civinfo - View Single Post - Dealers The great parking sensor rip-off

I discovered the speaker of the PDC today and I find it very disappointing. It's simply glued to the passenger side of the cover in the trunk. Not hiding it has the advantage of louder sound, but at the same time favours damage by loose content in the trunk. For this amount of money that it had cost, it's rather a rip-off.
However I'm pretty sure that I got the original Honda ones, as my sensors don't look like the aftermarket ones IIRC.
Nevertheless, it would be helpful if someone could confirm that the speaker of the original Honda accessory PDC is situated in the trunk (possibly at a different position due to dealer fit) and is simply a round black plastic housing with 2 - 3 slits and no switch to adjust the volume (e.g. L/M/H-switch)? And perhaps include a photography? I will do it ASAP.
