Is it even a sensor?

It looks like a black 'blob'

What is it and where can I get one?

Ta.

I think ur talking about the plastic cover that covers the sensor for the central locking. It comes off by gently squeezing each end.

So you have too get a sensor AND a cover?

Any idea where?

They aren't car specific are they?

Cheers guys.

On mk1s its for the central locking which is IR based. Mk2s have a RF set so no need for the IR sensor.

mark one's have them, so keep a look out at local breakers yards, that's what im doing.. haven't found one yet though :( they're easy to remove, squeeze the front and rear, like 'fkvtr' said, just be carefull not to snap off the clips which hold them in, like someone did to mine :y: hope this helps

I snapped mine off. Bad times. Easy to get new ones though chappy.
