Choosing the right used Ford Ka parking sensor
Used parking sensors vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:

Fitment questions
Do Ford Ka parking sensors exist as a factory-fitted option?
Parking sensors were not a factory-fitted option on the original Ford Ka (1996–2008) or the second-generation Ka (2008–2016), so you will not find a genuine OEM parking sensor system designed specifically for this car. If your Ka has parking sensors, they will have been fitted as an aftermarket accessory, meaning the sensors, module, and wiring are not Ford-sourced parts. If you are looking to replace or replicate an existing aftermarket system, you are best placed searching for a universal aftermarket parking sensor kit rather than a Ka-specific used part from a breaker.
My Ka has aftermarket parking sensors fitted – can a breaker supply replacements?
Because any parking sensors on a Ford Ka will be aftermarket rather than OEM, breakers who dismantle Kas are very unlikely to pull and stock parking sensor kits as a listed part. Your best route is to identify the brand or specification of the kit already on your car (often printed on the control module or sensors) and source a matching replacement from an automotive accessories retailer or online marketplace. If you do contact a breaker, be ready to explain it is an aftermarket fitment and describe the sensor diameter and number of sensors, as these vary between kits.
Could I use parking sensors from another Ford model on my Ka?
Since any parking sensors on a Ka are aftermarket, compatibility comes down to the specification of the aftermarket kit – typically sensor diameter (usually 18 mm or 22 mm), the number of sensors, and the control module type – rather than which Ford model they came from. A used aftermarket kit pulled from a Focus, Fiesta, or any other car would only suit your Ka if the diameters, buzzer or display type, and wiring connector match what is already installed. Confirm the full specification of your existing kit before approaching a breaker, as mixing components from different kits rarely works reliably.
Does it matter whether my Ka is a first-generation (1996–2008) or second-generation (2008–2016) model when sourcing parking sensors?
Because parking sensors were never factory-fitted to either generation of Ka, the generation boundary makes no difference to sourcing a replacement sensor system – this is not a case where a Mk1 part will or will not cross over to a Mk2. What matters entirely is the specification of the aftermarket kit already on your car, which could in theory be the same kit fitted to either generation. Focus your search on matching the aftermarket part number or sensor specification rather than the Ka generation.
Does the trim level of my Ka – for example Studio, Style, Zetec, or Titanium – affect whether parking sensors were fitted?
No trim level of the Ford Ka, from entry-level Studio through to the higher Zetec and Titanium grades, was offered with factory parking sensors, so trim level is not a relevant factor here. If sensors are present on any of these trim variants they are aftermarket additions, and the trim name tells you nothing about which kit was used or what specification it is. Identify the kit itself rather than relying on the trim designation when looking for replacements.
