Hi,
Had a go at fitting the Parking Sensors I purchased off Ebay for £17 incl P&P at the weekend. This is a pic. of the Set I purchased:

I'd just like to thanks everyone for their posts in other threads which helped no end and especially Paul who gave me some invaluable and time saving advise (If I'd found what he meant earlier) on how to route the Wires into the back on the truck.
Here is a pic of the finished job:

They work a treat, first Beep starts at this range:

Starts to Beep Quicker when here:

And Beep continually when at this distance:

Must admit not very good at the old DIY, so I was nervous about fitting them myself, want to put them on our other 2 car's so used the Terrano as a Guinea Pig. Was a very easy job to say the least, worst and longest bit was trying to find a route in for the cables, I didn't at first find the "Panel on the side" that Paul was referring to so spent ages trying to get the cable through a gromet which was never going to happen. Once I found the Flap Paul was referring to then the whole job only took about 40 mins.
I did buy a 4 sensor pack but to be honest didn't really see the point in fitting all 4 so just put the 2 in as shown in the photo.
All I've got to do now is have the balls to drill into the bumpers of our other cars.
