Default anyone have good aftermarket ideas for backup sensors
I'm looking into this for the R32 because i've been staying in downtown DC about 3 nights a week it would give me a little more added comfort when trying to squeeze into tight spaces. My audi never had this problem because it was always too big to fit into those spaces so i'd end up walking 5 blocks anyway. Thanks in advance.

Check with VW, they MAY have a kit available for the MkV... probably pretty pricey though.

Default Sensors are not going to prevent other people from hitting you.
Thats what I would be worried about. DC is a bumper car arena.
