Hi, im having a teeny bit of trouble with parking, i cannot see where the boot ends when im parking, should i place a factory spoiler on the end to help me see the back? Hope that makes sense.
Thanks in advance. |

Reverse sensors are cheaper, and much more effective.

An obvious place to buy them is ebay: http://search.ebay.com.au/search/sea...rclo=&saprchi= So for $350 to $400, you have something that works, for less than the price of a spoiler (at around $450 to $500 painted and fitted).

Or Simply use your side mirrors. Or Lift your head up a bit.
