Default Reverse back up sensors

Im looking into getting some reverse back up sensors, anyone know of some good quality sensors? Perhaps some that are color matched or are capable of being painted to match? A lot of cheap ones on ebay but I'm skeptical to trust them, thanks.

I've done a ton of these kits and have yet to see one come back that wasn't user error
The come in different colours, And I believe you can give it a thin coat of paint if you want

I wouldn't recommend getting them put on. I negotiated the dealership installing them when I bought my truck and I've been back there 3 times to have the entire system changed out because they malfunction so quickly. Either sensors will go out, panick for no reason, and when it rains you will here the most annoying flat line beeping noise every time you reverse. I would recommend going with the back up camera; it's no noise and it's very useful.

Welcome to the forum.

Auto stores may not have them but a dealer should.
