Parking sensors can come on any vehicle from the factory as long as you make the additional purchase. With Lexus dealers a package with parking sensors can cost upwards of 500 pounds. It will be closer to 1000 pounds if you decide to get the self parking Lexus model with back up cameras. The dealer packages are expensive, but you know they are installed and your vehicle will be safe as soon as you drive it off the lot.
We have a different solution for you if the package for Lexus parking sensors is too much from the dealer. Also, what if you buy your Lexus used? How can you get parking sensors on a used vehicle? To ensure that your vehicle is always safe we have the solution with the Parking Dynamics PD1 parking sensors. The PD1 parking sensor is an aftermarket product that is easy to install and “invisible when fitted.” In fact it is a no holes parking sensor, which means your bumper will look factory new.
The ease of installation combined with the cost of the parking sensor kits make them worthwhile even on a Lexus. What makes the PD1 parking sensors even better is that they work on any vehicle. You could purchase the parking sensors and a couple years later remove them and place the parking sensors on your new vehicle.
You have all around protection for curbs, pedestrians, and other vehicles that may be in the area you are parking. You never have to worry about damaging your front or rear bumper again. At Parking Dynamics we have three different parking sensors to sell. There is the front parking sensor, rear parking sensor, and the rear vision parking sensor. The front parking sensor works with a button under the dash to engage it. The rear parking sensors actually hook into your gear shift, so every time you go in reverse you will have the parking sensor engaged. The rear vision parking sensor offers a LED sensor to go with the audio tones to help you gauge the area behind you better.
To protect your Lexus, purchase one of our Lexus parking sensors from Parking Dynamics. They are universal parking sensors.

Ford a long time Car Company does sell parking sensor packages for their cars. If you want to spend the money to get a package added on at the factory you can certainly do so. Typically these packages are upwards of 500 pounds and can be quite expensive for the technology offered. Even their commercial trucks can come equipped with parking sensors. However, if you did not purchase your car directly from the factory or want to spend less on the car parking sensor options you can go with a different option. The Ford parking sensors we have from Parking Dynamics give you all around protection in an easy to install kit.
At Parking Dynamics you have three types of kits to choose from. The PD1 parking sensor can be rear parking sensors, rear vision parking sensors, and front parking sensors. To get the all- around protection you need at least the rear and front parking sensor kit.
The front parking sensor has a slightly different set up than the rear parking sensor. First of all the front parking sensor engages when you depress a button typically installed under or around your steering wheel. The reverse parking sensor works whenever you place the car in reverse. There is a sensor on the gear shift that tells the rear parking sensor that you are backing up.
What makes the PD1 parking sensor even better is its no drill parking sensor design. You do not have to drill any holes into the bumpers for installation. Instead the PD1 parking sensor for Ford will adhere to the back of the bumper. It is also a maintenance free option because they don’t move after installation and will not get dirty like the ultrasonic parking sensors. The ultrasonic parking sensors require maintenance and holes in the bumper.
Installation of the Ford parking sensors can be found on
www.parkingdynamics.co.uk for more information. We also have other information listed on how the electromagnetic parking sensor from Parking Dynamics works. This ensures you have the best parking sensor on your Ford, and can avoid any damage for years to come when parking.

Parking sensors are not a new technology. Until recently, though, they were only offered on very expensive vehicles or commercial trucks. You may remember a commercial truck backing up with an audible sensor that you could hear? Well the driver was listening to the parking sensor in the cab as well to tell them how close to an object they were getting. Now the parking aids are available as aftermarket parts or manufacturer parts depending on how much you want to spend. The factory installation is going to be at least three times more expensive than the aftermarket installation.
The reason being your factory installation has a mark up cost. The aftermarket installation is easy enough you can install the parking sensors on your own. Check out
www.parkingdynamics.co.uk for the technical information and we will now give you the top reasons to have the car parking sensors.
1. You’re in a parking garage about to back out. You’re parked next to an SUV, in your Mini Cooper. You can’t see around the SUV so you begin to cautiously back up. A young child suddenly drops his mother’s hand and runs by the SUV and you to their car. If you don’t have a parking sensor you won’t know an object is approaching.
2. All the time other cars get into parking accidents because the driver is not paying attention. For example a neighbour could be walking by your driveway on the phone. You have a blind spot and your thinking about making it to work on time. Your parking sensors you just installed two days ago will alert you to the object behind you.
3. Running over children or other adults are just some of the reasons you want to install parking sensors. A driver almost ran over the neighbour’s cat in a recent parking incident, but the parking sensor alerted the driver that the cat was near.
4. A man in a wheelchair was almost hit by a car, but luckily the driver had parking sensors.
5. Another example would be damaging your garage because you parked too close to one side. The parking sensor would tell you to reposition before actually ripping the mirror of the side of your car.
There are more than just five top reasons to have parking sensors on your vehicle. We may have offered some of the most dangerous incidents, but even the smallest parking accident can cause you a world of pain or money.

Parking safety should be your priority when you are in a parking garage or parking on the street. You don’t want to harm your vehicle or those around you. We have advantages of the Parking Dynamics PD1 parking sensor listed below to help you determine if it is the right parking aid for you.
1. The PD1 parking sensor will work on almost any vehicle from cars, vans, 4X4’s, SUV’s, and even motor homes. If you have a metal bumper you may need a small adaptation to the sensor for installation, but it will still work without any error.
2. The parking aid will be maintenance free. You never have to worry about adjusting the parking sensors or cleaning them. The only time you might experience issues is in heavy rain. On SUV’s water can get between the bumper and the car dropping water onto the sensor. This can cause a mild reading problem.
3. The parking sensor has a wide range to read objects around you and runs the entire length of the bumper, rather than not reading in the corners or sides like other models.
4. The PD1 parking sensor has a front parking sensor and a reverse parking sensor. Ultrasonic parking sensors have 4 to 6 sensors to install and they don’t provide all around protection.
5. The parking sensor taps into your car electricity and works instantly after installation. It also self diagnoses which is why it requires no maintenance.
6. The fitting of the parking sensor is easy. It does not require any holes to be drilled and there is no need for replacement unless the entire bumper has been damaged in an accident.
7. You can get as close as 10cm to an object with the parking aids from Parking Dynamics.
8. The PD1 parking sensor helps in restricted viewing, such as blind spots your vehicle may have.
9. You also get to save on your insurance because you reduce the number of claims you might have. It is also a matter of parking safety, which insurances reward when you have parking aids.
10. Lastly with the PD1 parking sensor you can park in busy cities and small spaces without problems.

Buying a new car means that you want to protect the vehicle and an Audi is one of the more expensive vehicles on the market. You can always purchase an Audi with factory parking sensors. The manufacturer has the technology to install them for you, but they usually want more than 250 pounds for installation, parts, and having the car personalised. If you want to save a little money on your Audi purchase or if you have an older model without parking aids you might consider aftermarket parking sensors.
At Parking Dynamics you have five different kits to choose from, and three parking sensors. The first is a front parking sensor, which is installed on the backside of your bumper with strong adhesive tape. You also have a rear parking sensor and a rear vision parking sensor. The rear vision parking sensor comes equipped with an LED sensor to help outline the area around you. It is different than camera parking sensor kits.
The Parking Dynamics PD1 parking sensor is a no holes parking sensor. It installs for all around protection with tape rather than a need to drill. It is also an electromagnetic parking sensor. It can read an area as close as 10 cm without causing an accident. Protecting your new Audi or even your older Audi should be a concern. Even if you don’t think you will upgrade to a new model in the next few years you still want to have resale value on the car. The Audi parking sensors make sure your car will be like factory new at least with parking protection.
The rear parking sensors will engage when you place the Audi in reverse. The front Audi parking sensors work a little differently. They need a button under the dash in order to engage the parking aids. The PD1 parking sensor will work on almost all vehicles, and not just the Audi. If you decide you wish to buy a different brand of vehicle you can take the parking aids with you instead of purchasing a new set. There are several reasons to purchase Audi parking sensors, and we have only mentioned a few. See
www.parkingdynamics.co.uk for more information.

Parking safety should be our number one priority whenever we need to park. In recent years with mobile phones and other electronics we have become complacent. We seem to park while on the phone, reverse out of a parking spot while on the phone, and generally just have bad parking safety habits. The driver is the leading cause of parking accidents in a parking facility. There are a number of ways to narrow down the parking accidents and be safer.
For one we can concentrate on the task at hand, rather than talking on the phone, starting the radio, and fastening our seatbelt while pulling out of a parking space. We also have technology like the PD1 parking sensor. The PD1 parking sensor tells you when you are too close to an object. The object can be a person, another vehicle, or high kerb. The parking sensor has a couple of zones to tell a driver if they are too close and need to reposition.
As a tool the PD1 parking sensor can be great at helping you avoid parking accidents; however, it should not make you less attentive to the task at hand. The PD1 parking sensor is an aid. As a parking aid it reads the area around you, but it cannot depress the break or make you pay attention to the parking job.
You have to be attentive at the wheel and use the parking aids as they were meant. The parking sensors are meant to help you with blind spots, where you can’t see the edge of your bumper in relation to an object. They are not meant to be the driver. By understanding how the parking sensors work you are able to park better and also with more attention. To stop the parking accidents you have to use the tools at hand and your common sense.

We all worry from time to time about getting into an accident that could have been prevented. If you have an electromagnetic reverse parking sensor you no longer have to worry about parking accidents. This device cannot only help you in case of an accident with another vehicle it can also help with other objects in the parking area. For example at a car park there can be cement barriers, high kerbs, and even people walking by that could cause you to have an accident.
Most parking accidents are labelled the fault of the driver. To make sure you no longer have these issues and instead practice parking safety we will look at how the electromagnetic reverse parking sensor will work.
There are two types of sensors, the other being ultrasonic. The ultrasonic sensor has a smaller radius for the readings it can take. In other words you can come within 30cm of the object before the parking sensor will offer you invalid readings. The electromagnetic rear parking sensor offers you 10cm between objects for accurate readings. It also has a better range for all around protection.
View the PD1 Electromagnetic Parking Sensor
The electromagnetic reverse parking sensor fits on the inside of your bumper. It does not require any modification to your bumper or maintenance. It is an easier to use system. By installing the electromagnetic reverse parking sensor it will engage every time you select the reverse gear in your vehicle.
For example if you have a BMW that you need to protect, you just slip it in reverse and begin backing up. The parking sensor will tell you if there is any object in the way. You still want to look behind you and around you to avoid collision with other objects, but the parking sensor is a helping tool.
In most vehicles you can’t see the edges of your bumper, which leads to bumping another vehicle when backing up or pulling into a parking space. The parking sensor takes this guess work away and helps prevent parking accidents.

At Parking Dynamics you have a choice of three different car parking sensor kits. You can purchase a front parking sensor, rear parking sensor, or rear vision parking sensor. You can also combine the three options into a kit. Knowing where to buy the parking sensor kits is the first step, but you also need to know what you get with the purchase and how to fit the parking sensor. We are going to examine what comes in the PD1 parking sensor kits.
To have the electromagnetic parking sensor you need a “brain” to run the sensor. The parking sensor electronic control unit or ECU is going to be the actual electrical system of the parking sensor kit. It is what reads the area around you to tell you how close to an object you actually are. The ECU attaches to the backside of the bumper. You can also put this “brain” in the bumper or under the hood of the vehicle. The parking sensor ECU attaches to the reverse light for power on the rear parking sensor. On the rear parking sensor the sensor will not engage unless you put the car in reverse. You should have a qualified installer place this part of the car parking sensor in the car, but if you are mechanically inclined you could install it yourself.
From the “brain” of the parking sensor you have the antenna. The antenna is a strong adhesive tape, which mounts to the entire length of the bumper. It is flexible so that you can run the sensor onto the sides of the bumper for all around protection.
To hear the parking sensor you need to have a speaker inside the car. This can be placed anywhere in the vehicle that you will be able to hear it. The speaker is what offers the tones to tell you have close to an object you really are.
In the front parking sensor kits you have a front parking sensor switch. The parking sensor switch must be depressed in order to engage the parking sensor. It should be mounted somewhere easy to reach like under your steering wheel or to the side.
For the rear vision parking sensor you have an integrated speaker with LED display. This is different from camera technology. It will give you a LED display for how close you are to an object. The car parking sensor kits do come with installation instructions if needed.

BMW gives you to options when you purchase your vehicle. You can have a dealership parking sensor kit installed or you can have the car without any parking aids. Dealership parking sensors tend to be expensive, even when it is the same technology. If you want to save money on BMW parking sensors we have an option for you at Parking Dynamics.
The Parking Dynamics PD1 parking sensor is an aftermarket installation, with the same technology as the car manufacturer. You will receive an electromagnetic parking sensor when you purchase the PD1 parking sensor. It has a range of the entire bumper and sides of the bumper. Other parking sensors do not have as much range to read objects.
Buying a BMW is an investment. You don’t want it to be damaged in a parking accident. There are two parking sensors for the BMW. You have the front parking sensor and the reverse parking sensor. What makes the PD1 parking sensors even better than other aftermarket competition is the “invisible when fitted design.” As a no holes parking sensor you attach the parking sensor to the back of the bumper and run the sensor to inside the car. You will be safe from bumps, scraps, and other accidents with the car parking sensors from Parking Dynamics. You also don’t have to damage the bumper just to install the sensors.
The rear parking sensor comes in two forms. You have a rear vision parking sensor that gives you a look at the area behind you. You also have the standard reverse parking sensor, which offers an audio signal. The Parking Dynamics PD1 parking sensor is maintenance free.

At Parking Dynamics there are three types of parking aids for sale. There are the front parking sensor, rear parking sensor, and rear vision parking sensor. Each one of these parking aids will be easy to install with an “invisible when fitted” design. We will look at how to fit parking sensors in the information below to help you. If you have the PD1 parking sensors from Parking Dynamics then you already have the best parking aids on the market.
The no drill parking sensors offer easy installation with a maintenance free design. Each of the parking sensors from Parking Dynamics attaches to the rear side of the bumper with strong adhesive tape. Now tape may not seem like the ideal way to attach something; however, the type of tape being used is often found on the electrical wires in your vehicle which means it sticks firmly and is fire resistant. The parking sensors will run along the entire bumper to read the corners as well as the sides of the bumper area.
The sensors are also electromagnetic parking sensors to give you a wider field of information. Once the parking sensors are attached to the back of your bumper you just need to route the wires to the gear shift and to the dash. The front parking sensor is engaged by a button under the steering wheel that you install. The rear parking sensors are engaged when the car is placed in reverse. The installation here is also easy and a guide is offered for step by step information.
If you don’t feel comfortable installing the parking aids on your own there are professionals capable of fitting your parking sensors. The Parking Dynamics parking sensors do work on metal bumpers. If you have a metal bumper you will need a small adaptation, which is easy to obtain. Even if you have a metal protective bar on the inside of your bumper you can still use the Parking Dynamics PD1 parking sensor with easy installation.
