thats real cool! then you dont have those ugly circles on your bumper.. Only thing is it installed to the inside of your bumper so that has to be removed but not a big deal.

I was sold right away on it, but decided to take a pass through Ebay to compare pricing before I clicked one up. I found the same thing, different Brand name on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-VR3-CA...wItem$45 shipped. I'll have one installed this week. Sorry the link plays music.

I just installed mine today. Now that is a cool gadget. I decided to put it on the wifes van since we've got 3 kids on trike, scooter and bicycle. Works well, get a good warning if something is back there. With the van two of our kids don't even show up in the rear window and they're safe.

Nice to know it worked well. How long did the install take?

I spend an hour on it. That includes time probing the tail light wiring for reverse and soldering all the connections back there. The silver foil tape is supposed to go inside the rear plastic bumper but I read some reveiws that said it had very limited range and since the tape color matched the paint, I just laid the sensor tape on the outside of the bumper. It's got a full 3 foot range on the first warning tone. I'm very happy with it, and the safety factor in the driveway is priceless.
