How To Disable PDC?

I'm looking to disable PDC on my car. Any ideas?

I was rear ended and I'm going to be getting a good deal on a new bumper that has no PDC holes. I can absolutely live without it. I just want to disable it in a way that throws no codes and I'll be happy.

Thanks!

Bump for answers. I looked and can't find anything specific to the 1 series at least.

Bumping it up again. I can't imagine I'm the first one to want to disable PDC for one reason or another.

Why not just transfer the sensors to the new bumper

No drill? I'd like to have PDC so I wouldn't get rid of it. But if that's what you really want, it can be coded out. Means taking it out of the vehicle order and making a line or two code change. If you search for retrofit threads you can find instructions. Coding is in the B M W c o d I n g website.
