Has anyone found or installed decent curb sensors on an 05+?
i don't have issues reverse or parallel parking at all, but i'm contemplating the idea of lowering my mustang, and it's worrying me that someday i might park too little too close to a pavement or a curb and screw up the chin spoiler or scuff a rim.

i'm thinking a standard parking sensor may not cut it, as i don't want something to warn me that i'm getting close to a wall or another vehicle.. i want a curb alarm!

 

Here you go super low tech sensors though,
HEHE

 

**** that looks Ugly! :S
any more "stealthy" approach?

 

Get a trunk monkey......

 

I miss those ads. They were great.

 

Hah! I was thinking old school curb feelers as well.

Only problem is that the Mustang's plastic bumpers won't transmit that irritating grating coil spring sound like the sheet metal from the '60s cars did.

I still have a set of NOS curb feelers in my garage someplace. Just don't have any vehicle I would ever dare to put 'em on.

 

I kinda wish that the Mustangs mirrors tilted down automatically when the car is in reverse. Seen this feature on BMWs and such and it is nice.

Oh well...

 

i'm mostly concerned about the front bumpers, since the rear ones have a bit more clearance.
but yeah.. i wonder if anyone would produce a kit that would automatically tilt the mirrors while reversing and restore them to the previous angle once back in forward gears..

 

We drove a BMW SUV that had those self tilting mirrors.. Really anoying.. We both drove a vehicle that had no center mounted rear view mirror (Still have a truck w/out one since you can't see behind you that way) so we are used to using the side mirrors when backing up. Got into the BMW and found the mirrors kept moving and made it so we couldn't look behind us when trying to backup.. not fun..

It was a borrowed vehicle so I didn't look into turning it off.. Just ranting about that feature that some love and other hate..
