I was at the junkyard this weekend and I saw a Celica with a corner sensor on the left side of the front bumper. There was also a switch inside to turn it off or on. I thought it was kind of cool, does anyone else know anything about this option?

Corner sensor as in a park sensor?


Someone correct me if I am wrong, but It sounds like an aftermarket sensor, I don't think the Celica came with these types of sensors as back then they would be thousands and thousands of dollars...
(I could be wrong though as I am always finding wacky JDM options for the celica haha laugh.gif )




In terms of a good option, I am a believer in If you need a sensor to help you park, and you do not have a legitimate excuse for it, then you shouldn't be driving.

This. The same goes with rear-view cameras, turn your fat face around and look. Stupid electronic nannies.

Japan had all those options due to tight parking spaces, hence the foldin mirror . They park as close to the wall as they can. Here in the us we don't have thar problem , we try to park in wide open spaces, because well.... Don't want to gothere

I stand corrected!


Pretty amazing the technology that both the US and AUS mostly missed out on during the 90's and 00's

Didn't mean to get everyone going, I really don't think its so functional as it is a novelty JDM option.
