Hi, bought some Cobra A0358 rear parking sensors and was just wondering if anybody knew where and what colour is the reverse light wire on the Astra J ?

And is the rear bumper difficult to get off?

Thanks Liam

Some info posted in an earlier thread:

No, you won't be able to follow the wire through the boot lid then to the light cluster.

There is a wiring loom in the panel to the left of the boot, in there there bunch of wires, one wire is white with green line, that should be the wire for the reverse feed and doesn't suffer from the can bus pulse..

HTH :thumbs:

And here's all I have on rear bumper removal:

you wont need to remove your bumper to fit the sensors. just drill the holes and push them in.
in your tyre well in the rear boot remove the wheel and you will see a plug, make a hole in it and pull the wires up through the plug in to the car,and then seal it with silicone.
i am sure the wire was green and white.
you will pick the wire up in the rubber boot that comes from the hatch to your car body.
