hello armude
you've just got your aveo partner from europe
I have the aveo LT diesel version with the petite 1.3L engine (but a monsteruss 210Nm of torque!)
I want to put on some parking sensors kit (have bought a 6 sensor one, 4 at the back and 2 at front) and need some help from you!!!
Your LTZ has parking sensors by OEM at the back bumper,so when you have some free time I need you to measure the points of the sensors, so that i could skip pulling down my bumper.
Thank you for your time, and looking forward to hear from you

ok, i will mesure it tomorrow. 210Nm it's a good torque for this car, it must be fun to drive.

i am still driving it sooo carefully (runing in the motor) for some more klm/h. When done i will have some fun with the esp turned off. Thanks for the help!

 

[armude]

if i mesure it right these are the measurements.

In this picture you can see how close the first sensor is from the corner.

Thank you

I aslo need the distance from the top of the bumper till a sensor, from the bottom till the sensor and from the edge of the bumper till the 1st sensor to know the height i should put mine. A photo tha i can compare the mark with a standar spot (if i see a photo that has it's center the whole back of the car i could "take" a straight line from a stable common spot of our car's back Whenever it is possible do these things, i am not in a hurry (at saturday i think i'll give it a try to put on the parking sensors)
Thank you aloooot

edit: The measures you took are very helpfull, but i'm afraid of not marking for the sensors at the center....and totaly correct

Ok, i will try to measure the first sensor but it's hard to find a good place to start the measurement. I will do it tomorrow ok?

 

[babbarioa]

yes sure! To help you out, you can first measure the distance from top to sensor and bottom, and then measure at the edge of the bumper to find the height of this spot. This will give you the height of the sensor,but to the edge of the bumper, so that you can then measure the distance for the 1st sensor. (omg if i read it i'll get confused too!!!!)

EDIT: Could you measure all the distances from the center of the sensors and not the outline?

Is it like this photo the spots? I can see the outer sensors are almost at the same place as the lamps of the tail lights above.

 

[armude]

here are the measurements!!! it's a little bit hard to understand it haha. The outer sensor measurement is from the beggining of the outer border of the circle of the rear light and then straight down. The other sensor measurements are from the second step at the edge of bumper. these pictures will help you a bit.

With measurements:

Without measurements:

The sensors are at the same place as the picture that you upload.

Thank you ALOT! This is even more helpful than my idea! With these pics i can do my job accurately! A picture is a 1000 words
