has anyone used these and will they work in the current "holes" on the rear bumper?

I think you will need to measure the holes. The original rear sensors on mine were a dealer fit option and looked very similar to this aftermarket kit. When I changed the rear bumper I fitted a camera instead.

The hole cutters supplied with these aftermarket sensors are generally 21-22mm, so as Neil says, it depends on the original hole size. You won't be able to use any of the original wiring though.  I fitted a set on my Celsior a few weeks ago and they work a treat.  I only paid £19 though, £34 is too much, especially as they're not vehicle specific. Easy job really. The hardest part was finding a way through to the cabin from the boot for the speaker wire.

You just have two wires to connect, one to earth and the other to a reversing light positive.  To be honest a decent local mechanic would probably do the job for about £60.
