I'm looking at the accessories catalog and it shows a PDC retrofit (66 20 0 304 550), its priced at 275.00. Has anyone retrofitted this? I take it installation is extra? and does this price include the PDC sensors in the rear?
any more info on this would be appreciated.

I don't have answers to all your questions but I'm pretty sure that the accessory PDC only includes rear sensors. Also, it may not have a visual display on the CID like the factory installed one has...

thanks for the quick reply.
Rear sensors only would be fine but I would like to have the visual display along with it. I'll ask the dealer or hopefully someone here has done this I hate asking my dealer simple questions they can never answer.

. the other problem is the labor will be much more expensive than the parts. i'd rather save that kind of money to get a my06

And even if you get PDC on the rear only, there's no guarantee it'll stop this from happening:

Yikes!
This is precisely why I did not order PDC!
