Not sure about your nipples  ;D, but your glove box is cooled if you open the slider with ac on.
Not sure why though. The Omega has one of the smallest gloveboxes I've ever seen.

They're all small nowadays(glove boxes not nipples) because of the passenger airbag. At least you get a small glovebox on an omega. I've just sold a saab 9000--no glovebox, all airbag.

`tis a good point, wifes Safrane 99 plate has no glovebox, but then nothing would surprise me with big renaults!

Glovebox on my Peugeot 206 is bigger than both the Omega Airbags - inflated. Isn't that right Laidback? - who said he would never drive another omega after sitting in my Peugeot! (because he now has chronic walking problems after a 4 mile journey with his knees in his ears.  ;D

Hmmm, Peugeot 206, I recommend anyone who is contemplating getting rid of their Omega, has a go in one of these!

It makes you realise what you take for granted... like space, suspension and crash protection!  ;)

Trace them back should be a little control box and a buzzer all connected to the reverse wire

Have they got wires going to them on the inside?

In the centre of the plastic looks like corroded alloy or summat.

Not like any reversing sensors ive ever seen.....but if Martin says they are the same as his....then they must be.

I woulda guessed they were for an accessory add on.......like a pushbike rack

They do look a little like some cheapo stick on reversing sensors that Argos used to sell a few years back - the beeper/led unit was the control unit as well. I guess that bit is missing, but the sensors remain.
