installing aftermarket Blind Spot Detector(BSD)
Posted: Wed Apr 08, 2020 7:23 pm
There are 2 types of BSD in the market:
1- ultrasonic: more like rear parking sensor with extra range(2-3 meters)
2- Microwave: this type uses 24GHz receiver and transmitter which can detect multiple objects with range of 10m.
microwave has these pros:
- long-range
- no need to drilling rear bumper to install sensors. microwave signals can pass plastic.
- can work well in fog and rain situation.
also has some cons in my opinion
- more expensive
- false alarm in some cases.
overall it is a good safety option for Kizashi and I am happy with this install.
I bought this unit from aliexpress
