This kit is the flush fitting version of the award winning
DPS400 kit. Your best buy for the most
professional looking installation yet! Rather than drilling holes in the bumper
and pushing the sensors into place as with our other parking sensor kits with
this system you get a hole punch included with the kit and fit the sensors from
the rear.
These sensors have a large adhesive rim which means that
after you have used the hole punch to create your hole, you just need to remove
the red layer and adhere the sensor to the inner side of your bumper with the
centre lined up in the hole. Finally the inner part of the sensor then has a
screw mechanism to adjust the front of the head forwards to align it with the
front of the bumper, this mechanism allows for different thickness of bumpers
to give a proper flush fitting. Fixing sensors in this way mean that they are
flush with your bumper giving the ultimate discrete factory fitted look.
What You Get
The Dolphin flush fit kit is a high quality 4 flush mounting sensor system that will cover the widest range of cars giving a professional finish. Included with the 4 flush fit recess sensors is a buzzer which gives audible beeps with increasing frequency as you get closer to an obstacle.

If you wear
a hearing aid we would recommend that you consider the DFM450 kit which also
has a display, as opposed to this standalone audio in case the audible pitch of
the alert is incompatible with your hearing aid.
Swap Socket
Feature
All of our
kits come with the watertight swap socket feature based 12 inches from the
sensor heads, it makes installation quicker and easier than standard sensors
offered by other companies. Also should you ever have any problems with faulty
sensors, or accident damage in the future, it facilitates easy replacement
without having to remove the bumper again and rewire from scratch.
How it works
The system
works by radiating ultrasonic beams throughout the area behind the vehicle. The
beams are then reflected by obstructions behind the vehicle, and re-enter the
sensors. The control box uses the reflected beam information to calculate the
distance of the obstruction.
As with the
other systems the Dolphin unit is activated when reverse gear is engaged. As
the vehicle is reversing. When the vehicle is less than 1.5 metres from the
obstruction the audible alert will emit intermittent bleeps. As the vehicle
gets closer to the obstruction the frequency of the bleeps increases. At 30
centimetres from the obstruction the bleeps become a continuous solid tone.
