Default So far, so good - Sensors now on order

Thanks BestGear,

Trim tool kit arrived from eBay yesterday. XC90 pulled back into our garage and rear bumper removed in no time at all thanks to your clear guide and pics.

We also have front parking sensors and the dealer has told us that sensors no. 3 & no.6 have failed. So we've also dismantled the front park sensor middle section too.

We've got three sensors on order from eBay. At £17 each we thought a spare might not be a bad idea!

Next weekend we'll refit it all. At the moment the 'girl's' looking a bit weird without a rear bumper but we'll not need to use this car for the week so she can just stand on the drive!

Seriously, if this works next weekend then you've saved us £400. OUr dealer quoted over £400 because of labour - dismantling the rear & front bumper (although the front bumpger is just stuck on with double sided tape!).

Almost too good to be true but I'll keep you updated.
