Aftermarket sensors ARE wired to teh reversing light system.. All you need to do is disconnect teh existing sensors and control box wiring.. and remove the old sensors.

'The shape of things to come'. They came and mostly went but a well presented TR7 convertible with the hood down looks truly classical alongside nondescript MX5 or MR2 offerings. Youngsters are often surprised at how old they are.
