No problems at all, the sensors are even supposed to take account of the extra bit stuck out at the back and allow an extra margin.

Got the car, fitted the towbar with the relay..... did not know enough about the car at the time ... Ce la vie As I don't spend too much time reversing with a trailer it is a minor matter
