After the events of this thread.
Don't Drive Like My Brother

I have ordered one of these.
Wireless Display Top or Under Dash Mount Reverse Parking Sensor Kit
For about $70 it seems as good an investment as a TPMS for over $350.

I won't install it till the repairs are done.

Put's me in mind of the fifties curb finders we use to have on our cars with the 21st century technology.

Dan I think there RF but they may be Infrared sensing. The transmitting is RF like a TPMS.


Hammer the old curb sensors were wireless transmitting to the driver , but it's hard to call them wireless since they were made of wire. They worked but wouldn't have seen the post soon enough.
