Has anyone tried fitting one of these systems to a P80/850 Volvo and if so were they any good?

Any suggestions or recommendations?

e.g.

Thanks,

Not cameras - They're ultrasonic range sensors.
Not my cup of tea, but there's no reason it shouldn't work.
Honestly, I spend the dough on stage 0 parts or spares.

I owned a XC70 2002 for a short time with the optional factory detectors which beeped through the driver's headrest speaker for the factory phone kit.

Wow a female voice would be better than a beeper. The system made reversing a breeze and it activated for at least 2.0 metres away from the rear obstacle. My wife needs this!!
