    Default Nearly there! (with park pilot)

    Well i have spent the best part of this afternoon fitting my park pilot kit. A few wee snags but generally comming on quite well.
    More or less threw the instuctions away as they are usless and played it by ear. Have just painted the sensors tonight so all thats to do is drill holes fit sensors and bumper loom and thats it all ready for tech 2.

    Has anyone else had problems fitting this??

    Well park pilot integrates with the CAN system of the Vec. This means that it can check it's own sensors and show faults on the dash if something goes wrong. It also knows when a trailer is plugged in and can disable the parking sensors when towing.

    The only real problem is that vauxhall never really thought the piggyback fuse holder through and when it is put into the fuse that they recommend it hits the fuse holder for the towbar electrics so a bit of thought was needed there
