Front end damage when parking is a very real problem for many cars on the road today, especially for vehicles who have installed ground effects or aerodynamic profile improvements on their vehicles. Curbs are something that are one of those road hazards that do more damage to sports cars than any other hazard on the road. In fact, just a simple trip to the corner store can become a costly errand if you over-estimate your front end clearance when parking: damage repairs could easily run $1000 or more; however, Curb Alert provides you a warning system that gives you three-deep warning tones as you approach too close to a curb with your C5 Corvette.
The Curb Alert is very easy to install and does not put a drain on your battery when the car is not on. Using a patented infrared technology, the front mounted sensor is calibrated to a warning distance of anywhere from 8-28″ (you decide with whatever you feel comfortable with). The warning alarm is hidden in the car and will give you three gentle tones when you are within a specified distance to the curb. The system gives you a short beep every time you start your car to let you know the system is active.
Prevents embarrassing parking lot moments and sounds when your bumper or front spoiler hits a curb.
Sensor can mount in a discrete manner in the front end of most any vehicle and does not require any drilling.
Advanced infra-red triangulation technology and specialized software embedded for reliable operation.

Automatic power-up on vehicle ignition; never a battery drain.

Installation kit includes installation procedures, all wiring, wire ties, sensor calibration procedures, and user guide.

I love this item I love this item. My cC5 Corvette front bumper was freshly repainted, I can now pull up to a parking curb with confidence that I know what is a safe distance. Before the bumper was repainted, I had a few curb scrapes.
A Must Have for all Vette Owners This is a must for every Corvette owner. I no longer have to guess how far I am from the curbs. The sensor gives two beeps inside the car when I am 8″ ( distance I set when it was installed) from an obstruction. I have a new Vette and this will insure that the front air dam stays that way.
Great Product Great product for my c5. Easy install and works exactly as advertised. Would definitely recommend for all cars with a long sloping noses like the Vette.
