Product attributes:

The retrofitting of the original parking steering assistant / PLA is possible on all VW Passat B8 models of all years of manufacture and all body types (sedan, estate, alltrack) with built-in parking assistance at the front and rear (ParkPilot).

On request, we will be happy to supply you with PLA sensors already painted in the correct color

Painting work is carried out by a master automotive paint shop using your chassis number / the paint codes stored there.

Since every VW Passat B8 already has an electromechanical steering system at the factory, the automatic parking process can be retrofitted.

The steering wheel moves without any intervention from the driver.

With this retrofit package, the parking aid is extended to the surrounding display; your VW Passat B8 also warns you when driving past with the all-round display in your multimedia system.

To make retrofitting easier, we recommend installing bumpers prepared for the PLA sensors.

Alternatively, the PLA sensors can also be installed flush in the existing bumpers (but this does not correspond to the factory installation - the function could be impaired because the beam angle is different) - many of our customers do it this way because the parking aid is still upgraded to include the "side" warning.

Approximate assembly instructions:

Remove front + rear bumper.

Insert the four new PLA sensors.

Connect the sensors to the existing parking aid cable sets at the front and rear.

Route the cable harnesses to the control unit of the parking assist system (located in the driver's footwell) and to the button panel with additional PLA button.
