bump, any others interested? This probably won't happen until after the new year, I want to order a single unit as a sample so I can check it out first and make sure it's a decent product. But I'm looking at getting this going in January if there's enough interest to warrant it.
As for the price point, yes, it's a good price, I could probably jack it up some but truthfully I really just thought this is a pretty cool product and would be a nice creature comfort mod for our cars. There are others that have LED displays and other bells and whistles, but honestly they cost more and I don't think that the LED is really necessary at all, it's just another blinky thing that doesn't fill any more purpose.

Wouldn't this require cutting into your bumper?

Yes, you'd have to drill small holes to mount the sensors.
