Can you tell me how the sensors attached inside the front bumper? There is not the Same type of set up as in the rear. They look like they are shaved in front. Is the clip built into the bumper itself?

I would like to know this as well. I was thinking I might have to do it the same as the rear but it just doesn’t look like it will work at all.

There are six sensors compared to the four in back. The "brackets" that the sensors and their rubber gaskets snap into do have different part numbers to ensure a 90 degree facing of the sensors for both the front and sides.

That said, I'd added front and back parksense to my 2016 Tradesman using the following thread. I had to make more wiring modifications as some of the harnesses didn't exist in my truck. Unfortunately as there is a lot of methods to approach it's not a simple step by step DIY guide. Thread started as "rear parksense" but had front details added as well.

Note, front and rear parksense use a separate module than rear parksense only. So you'll need not only the front wiring, but the additional module. Fortunately the 14 wire connector needed for the front harness to the module is still in stock. The 12 wire connector is discontinued at most part suppliers, but you'll have that already if you already have the rear parksense module installed in your truck.

Thanks,
I have not seen one of these close up, but the sport bumper looks like it is shaved. There does not appear to be the bezel that snaps in from the outside, like it does on the rear bumper. The sensor appears to be held from the inside of the bumper somehow.

Here is a photo posted by a forum member recently, Maybe the bezel just blends in and can’t be seen. I asked him to send a picture, but he hasn’t gotten back
