New to me W211 which I'm really enjoying.
The only slight problem is that it doesn't have the rear parking sensors.
I can get a kit off of ebay for next to nothing, and I've used them before to fit to a mates car, which worked fine.
The question is, can I get away with the basic kit or does my car have canbus etc. which will mean spending as much as £25 !!!:D:D:D

Cheers

Hi,
Welcome to the forum, you have not quoted the year of your car but as it is a 211 then I assume it is 2003 onwards and in which case it will have Canbus fitted. Looks like the piggy bank will get emptied.

My dyslexic side urges caution if the ebay listing states No Reverse.
 
I have fitted basic ki to W211 with no problems!
 
You will need an additional relay as your car is CANBUS and without it, the sensors will not work. I would by CISBO parking sensors as I have fitted these before to CANBUS systems. The relay you will need is eBay item number:141274040885 and the sensors are eBay item number:141038761146


You complain about spending £25, good job you don't have MB sensors installed, they are £50 each per sensor to replace if faulty!

Steve.
