What is this?

Post by mikenewsh » Sun May 26, 2019 8:10 pm

Hi all,

I have just bought a new Bongo, as the garage burnt my last one out during the MOT prep. This one has a funny looking stick on the front bumper. Can anyone help identify this? I've been told it might be a parking aid, but wasn't sure if they were taking the p*ss!

Cheers, Mike N

Corner guides / parking poles were an optional extra. :) There are a few different styles. Some telescope down into the bumper, some don't. Some have a light on top, others don't. More info on this link: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=68356&p=645868&hili ... er#p645807

Yep, we've got one on the V6.

I was going to remove it, but I quite like it ! The light on the end glows green at night, and we call it firefly !
