I recently went to Taiwan and have seen a few GS300s with the reverse sensors on the bumpers. They did not look like aftermarket stick-on ones, but integrated into the bumper. Has anyone else seen this before?

Are there any aftermarket ones, that can be integrated flushly onto the bumper.

Thanks

the ones you saw where FACTORY sensors they have them in Arabia as well I have seen them and wanted to get it for my GS400 here in the US but it was too Expensive I had to buy a lot of stuff,,, they do not bring it to the US market Why ??? I have no idea kinda stupid not to bring them here but I think they want to introduce them sometime in future as an option just to make more money......

The GS300 in Arabia/Asia/Europe all have the sensors as factory specification.

I've heard from a good source that they don't work very well. Perhaps because there are only two sensors which are not enough.

I'm having four sensors (by Bosch) integrated into my rear bumber next week. Cost me about $400 including installation. I'll get back to you with pictures as soon as it's done.
