You mean the reversing sensor??? It has to be done from the inside I think...this is what I have heard! Why do you want to remove it?

I did it on my 06, it should come out fairly easy.

yeh i took it out...sri is in atm...

damn crap i couldn't pull it out with my hands....had to put it between something and pull the tube towards myself...the sensor fell about 2ft to the ground...(crap)

how fragile are the sensors anyway? and how do u know when it's ***ed?

i'm paranoid now...lol

[destrukshn]

sensor sould be fine still.

[EuroDude]

yeh I doubt there are any moving/mecahnical parts in the sensor so it should be fine.

[corn_flakes]

how do u know if it's buggered though??

[EuroDude]

I would imagine you can use a multimeter on the sensor wire contacts to measure resistance or voltage, while using a hair dryer on the sensor to change the temperature. The multimeter reading should change if the sensor is ok.
