    are you sure... have you seen what the oem setup looks like? its was only available for the rear bumper, had 4 sensors, they are at different heights and the 2 central sensors are different and larger than the 2 outside sensors. they look bulky and very dated compared to todays sleek sensors. maybe retrofit a modern aftermarket set that you can also get for the front too and it would be much cheaper

    I am going to install front+rear PDC from e38.
    It will look much cleaner than OEM. The most rare thing to find though it's an OEM E31 PDC switch.

    I believe it's still available. I got one last year or the year before...

    Are you using the 2 wire or the 3 wire active system?
    I know the 2 wire system works but would be nice to confirm the active version works.

    Yes it does, but switch is still part of the system.

    I saw many cars with OEM pcd System. And none of them don't have this switch. In oem new set of pcd this Switch is also absent...

    not enough
    are you using factory bmw sensors? If so, from which years? I was looking into making the e38 system fit but ran into the BUS issue, then I just left the project by the wayside.
