Hello new member here from Canada!

Picked up my new 2023 PB XLT High package after waiting to see what spec a 2024 can be with Bench from seat ! (turns out not much) so jumped on one of the last 2023.

I have the chrome package which I need to remove as not a fan myself, I do not have 360 camera or front parking sensors, Can I add front parking sensors ? I am just about to order new front and rear bumpers so I could order with holes and grab the sensors too?

I have searched the forum but not seeing if it can be done OEM?

Thanks in advance !

Congratulations on your new truck.
You can for sure add the sensors but it will require more than just the sensors. New wiring and checking if you have the right modules already installed.

I guess that you might already knew but as far as adding sensors is considered there are number of thread which talks about installing these sensors.

Example:

Thank you for the reply’s and information really appreciated.

I have read through these and also touched base with my ford dealership, they mentioned it can be done but I would have to add additional safety features to make it the same as a lariat, then they can update the software the same……..

Wow 300$ Cad per sensor!

Probably easier to retro fit a bench seat in a loaded lariat at this rate !
