Thank you @Robert ! Can you please tell me a small thing more :) Slave J1087 left - connector T8br 3 - lamp mirror right K304 to LED Pin 1 or 2? 4 - lamp mirror left K303 to LED Pin 1 or 2? The second LED Pin goes to Ground? Actually there are 3 pins on each OEM mirror LED...
Are you asking where it runs once inside the van?
Hiya - you could pop up to @The Van Cave or @Absolut5 for complete peace of mind.
All looks ok to me. Being a left hand drive kit you may have to swap some pins in the plugs , or run the cables from the sensors down the opposite side of the van otherwise it will display the sensors incorrectly on the display , left instead of right etc

Hi, yes that’s what I read when looking through posts, I would much rather a right hand drive kit, I get confused very easy lol. I don’t no for sure it’s left hand drive, I asked the question and seller said yes it fits right hand drive but that’s not a yes it’s a right hand drive kit, being from Poland I’m just assuming it’s LHD, I’m thinking now for the hassle it’s going to cause me I’ll just buy universal front sensors with dash button, seems only extra I would get is on screen display, iv got universal set on rear at moment and they work satisfactory just not factory spec.
Stick with that it, es it will be a LHD drive kit , but it’s worth the trouble, do not fit a aftermarket front kit, they never work well..

Hi, thanks for reply, you think I should, I really would like factory and iv got halo9 so should connect up ok, just worried about swapping wires etc, if iv got a dummy guide I’m good, but electrical diagrams etc is like reading Russian to me lol. Ok cool I’ll have another read and see if can get my head round wire swapping.
You may not have any wire swapping to do, the LHS of the vehicle is the LHS no matter which side the steering wheel is. You might need to extend some cables though because the BCM is in a different place. Alternatively you could take the loom down the other side of the van

Hi mate, thanks, so lol… let me try this, if I go the left as Uk spec the BCM wires will stop near passenger side, so extend across dash to BCM.. go down right side van will need sensor wires swapped but will reach BCM. Or am I way off already.. haha
I know this is an old thread, but I'm adding this info for future reference.
The problem is on a LHD car the end of the harness goes through a grommet on the right side (looking head on at the engine bay) but on a RHD it goes through the left side. So the harness is effectively upside down if using a LHD harness on a RHD van, left is right, right is left. You either fit an extension cable or you flip the wires.
You move the pins around in the module plug ..
Yep that's what I meant.
Just a heads up, if you buy the gloss fog panels from Travelinelite you'll have to cut the panel so it fits around the access panel for the towing eyelet.
Question regards to the parking sensor retrofit.
I am planning to buy a T6 but I want to fit parking sensors on to the car, and I see the kit mentioned earlier in this thread but I wonder how all this fits in a car with this FRONT.
Doesnt seem like the plastic cover around the foglights fit into this car? The same goes with the grill part above the fog lights? Is this section on the front splitted or do I then need to buy a new grille?
I also saw someone mention a pq35 unit, and where can i find a KIT with this?
