Retrofit front parking sensors (GTC)
#1
Hello! I've recently bought a 2014 Astra J Biturbo, it's only got the rear parking sensors, and therefor the distance is audible only. I am wondering what is involved in fitting front sensors, and having it programmed appropriately.

I have seen posts regarding retrofits, but can't seem to find one with info when you already have just the rears. 

Any information is appreciated, many thanks, Pedro

Front bumper loom & sensors.

Custom made loom to go from battery to front bumper loom.

Sensor brackets.

New lower grill (depending on if any sensors go in grill).

New pdc module.
Astra-J 2.0 CDTI S/S
Retrofitted AFL, TPMS, Navi950, BT, DAB, Rear Camera, Infinity sound system, Towbar, Flexfloor & more.
I can do programming and retrofits using genuine GM MDI and Dealer software.

Hello, I recently installed front parking sensors for Astra J GTC, I will post a detailed video, until then I would like to help you.

If the front bumper is original, you can refer to the location of the sensor plates, I did not change the lower grille, I used the Plastic part with the license plate. (I haven't painted the sensors yet)

In my vehicle's sensor, the connection cable (installation cable) for the front parking plot is partially broken, this cable goes to the front side to the cable bundle under the battery.

Do you have it in your own vehicle, check it first, I made the connection by pulling a cable from under the battery, in the original this cable comes together with the installation cable for the front fog lights, I will make the connection as soon as the original one.

After programming the module and programming the Yol b computer, everything works as it should.

I will post a more detailed video later.
