Its not difficult at all - just take your time, dont rush. Make sure you put a soft blanket on the ground to place the rear bumber on when you take it off to avoid marking it. Follow the guide thats on here and you should have no problems at all.

The plate details all the weight info on the left side.
On the right side is other info, paint code is the second row.

I.E. YR599M = Champagne Silver

I know that people say that it is easy but is there anyone near enfield north london that would like to help me fit them.

I would pay for there time or help them out with something.

would the silver ones from ebay Item number: 320128118499 colour match my alabaster silver honda?.

Thanks Mark

I ordered the black ones and they have arrived today.

I am ordering the paint/Primer/laquer from auto paint (thanks for the link)

Which primer should I use
ACRYLIC PRIMER 400ML GREY or PLASTIC PRIMER 400ML ?

I just read the intructions and it said not to use any primer and only 1 coat of paint?.

Here's a couple of Colour codes

Habanero Red = YR551M
Alabaster Silver = NH700M (my colour)

Thanks Mark

I notice the Cisco sensors come with an adaptor for 'non -vertical bumpers' can anyone tell me what angle they can adapt to max, want to put them on an Acc Tourer but the angle underneath is quite steep. Also can anyone give an idication of colour match for the blue ones. Which Honda colour is closest. etc.

Any info gratefully received.

the angle is not that great. but you could use more then one angle adaptors per sensor. If you can not order any extra from the seller I am sure that members on here could send you theres that they did not use.

You can have my four.

what is your car colour code?.

don't forget your 10% members discount rear parking sensors

Colour Code is B502P. Indigo Blue Pearl

Thanks for the offer of spares, if I need them then I'll post, might mock up an adaptor and paint the whole lot. Didn't know about the discount either so thanks again

Which colour did you buy for your cisbo sensors as I not sure if the silver version will match the Alabaster Silver. Or may consider painting them myself. If you have any pictures, this would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Martin, the silver ones are perfect for Alabaster. I'll try and get a pic up later but it looks just like Aubrey's...

My 1st post so go easy on me. Have checked the forum and not found any answer to this so here goes.

Has anyone tried the 6/8 sensor front and rear systems? Don't know about you but at 5'6" I cannot see the front of the car at all and fancy putting some at the front too.

Chris

Hi kissifer1972, welcome.

Sorry, I can`t tell you anything about the 6/8 sensor systems,have also bought the cisbo 4 sensor kit, but haven`t got the time to install
them...

But your question is very interesting, I was also thinking about installing a cisbo kit in the front
(somewhere in the black plastic part below the painted area), which can be switched on manually when needed.

Has anybody got a how- to or some guideline of how to remove the front bumper or the black plastic part?
Would be very apreciated...


Thanks a lot guys,

yours opjepass

Anyone able to explain what the grommets are for in the install instructions? What size do I need?

Can I also just check that this is the kit everyone has bought [4 sensor kit @17.99]? There is also similar 4 sensor kits from the same seller at 21.95 and 18.95.

Cheers

@mattlittle: its exactly the same system I got, and I think its the original
cisbo 4 senor kit that the thread is based on.

So in my opinion, u`r absolutely right...!
