    3D printed parking sensor shield for Mitch Hitch

    Stops the reverse parking sensors from being triggered by an aftermarket raised tow hitch, such as "Mitch Hitch"

    If the parking sensors "see" the tow bar, why don't they "see" whatever it Is that covers, or blinkers them?

    Just curious, I've never had a car such high tech equipment.

    the way I thought about my design was that it was reflecting the waves away from anything that would reflect them back to be measured.

    with just covering it, maybe there is a minimum distance that if below it ignores ?
