[QUOTE="Specialtyperformanceparts, post: 1460834, member: 24406"] One of the reasons we developed out Mount the way we did was specifically because you DON'T need to relocate the adaptive CC sensor. While the aftermarket bumpers are popular, there is a reason Ford installed the sensor lower in the bumper. FUNCTIONALITY. When you relocate it way high in the grille as is required, you take it up off the ground where the sensor is intended to get feedback from vehicles. Coming up on low profile cars like say a Corvette, it may or may not read as well as it would in its current lower location. I can't say I have heard of any accidents specifically from that, but common sense tells you that Ford would optimize the sensor based on it's factory location and height. So that is just something to keep in mind with bumpers or mods that block, cover or modify those 2 Plastic panels in the bumper. Function and added safety are definitely something to be careful with. The second reason is ZERO modification. Unlike that Baja mount or the Nfab Mount, you don't need to drill into your bumper, plastic or relocate anything. It is designed to simply bolt into existing bolts. So if you ever wanted to take it off and keep it to resell your truck, you wouldn't have holes in those plastic panels or need to buy new ones. Below is an install video showing how easy it is to install the mounts without cutting drilling or relocating anything. [MEDIA=youtube]84emy-Dx0LY[/MEDIA] John [/QUOTE]
