Hi!

I don't know where you can find Denso parking sensors... but I equipped my car with a new electromagnetic invisible type parking sensor, the Proxel EPS-Micro Plus ( http://www.proxel.com ), and I am enthusiastic of it! It works fine and, above all, you don't have to drill the bumper!

Thank you for you help, Can you be more helpful to tell me how the name of the website you bought from them and how much it cost.

Sure...

I bought the Proxel EPS-Micro Plus from the site http://www.digital-planet.it at € 84.00 ($ 107.08) plus a shipment cost of € 5.82 ($ 7.42), for a total of € 89,82 ($ 114.50). Unfortunately this site is for Italian customers only, because to buy you have to register yourself and the program accepts Italian postal codes only.

Fortunately the site http://www.proxel.com says that the Proxel EPS-Micro Plus is sold worldwide, with the name BumperCare, by some concessionaires. For the U.S.A. the concessionaire is AsiaMac ( http://www.bumpercare.com ).

However if you search "electromagnetic parking sensor" on Ebay you will find an imitation of the Proxel EPS-Micro Plus (which is patented in Italy, Europe and U.S.A.) at the price of $ 111.87 plus a shipment cost of $ 7.46 for a total of $ 119.33 (Ebay item number: 8070631662 - http://cgi.ebay.com/ELECTROMAGNETIC-PARKIN...1QQcmdZViewItem ).

The EPS-WBD (Electromagnetic Parking System - Wave Band Display) and the EPS-Micro Plus are the same product, except that the EPS-WBD parking sensor has both the acoustic signal and a three-color led wave band display to indicate the different distances.

I don't know any site selling EPS-WBD in US or in UK, but if you want you can contact Proxel directly at eps@proxel.com.

Hi Alberto Michelatti

I want to ask you for the avalon which proxel sensor is better to me to install EPS-WBD or EPS-Micro Plus cause i dont know if EPS-WBD display is going to look good in the car or not.

Until now do you feel that you are satisfied with EPS products or there is some disadvantages?

Personally I would choose the Proxel EPS-Micro Plus, so all the components are hidden and no modifications to the cockpit are required.

Consider that the electromagnetic-type parking sensors are based on the capacity principle, so, as the downlodable instructions explain, they aren't able to detect all the materials. For example they aren't able to detect highly insulating materials like for instance glass, ceramics and plastic objects when these are dry (though not even the classical ultrasonic parking sensors are able to detect all the obstacles... for example they have problems to detect thin stakes and small objects... ).

However after more than four months of use I am satisfied of the Proxel EPS-Micro Plus parking sensor, since it detects the most part of the obstacles like walls, trees, persons, cars, stones, stakes and so on. For example it is very useful for parking in a row between two cars.

Hi Alberto Michelatti

Can you tell me only how did you fix EPS parking sensor antenna inside the bumper and how did you layout its the connection to antenna?, did you remove the bumper to fix the antenna? If not so how did you fix the antenna?

When i went to fix EPS parking sensor they told me that they need to open the whole bumper to fix the antenna, so is it true or not?
