subaru used to use the tape but it's awful and it picks up everything, they do a proper kit and in it you get a template that tells you where to drill the holes and even a cutter to drill them with thats the correct size. it's a lot better than the tape and you can even paint them as well.
i done so many warranty claims for the tape type it wasn't funny and subaru eventually fitted the 4 sensors when the tape went wrong for free.

I have read good reviews about the Parking Dynamic sensors so hopefully they dont act up

I used the tape on 5 cars of mine now and its great.
Used the hole typ ultrasonic ones and unless its the pre cut with correct sensors, they look like after market ones. The tap is only bad in rain, thats the false but

I am fitting one to a Jag next week as a favour as he loved it in my old 2005 passat. Like I said, only false alarms are in rain but I lived with it than a damaged rear bumper and it ment I could remove it from one car to another and only change the tape lol

They are dead easy! One wire to ground, one wire to reverse light, Run buzzer in cab etc then the tape goes in the bumper and plugs in.
