Back-forward Sensors?

My truck has back-up sensors, and they're great, but i need sensors on the front bumper for parking. I am really mashing my front license plates. Is there any system that can tie into the factory system to provide front coverage?

This post makes my blood boil. I honestly hope you dont plow your plate into the car in front of you when you park. People like that need to walk.

Both of you may take great delight in knowing that there are aftermarket parking aid systems on the market that work just as well as the factory installed ones do. Since it's a kit and has to be installed, who says you can't put it in the front bumper?

Gad Zooks!! I needed sensors all around!! My sweetie (4"11" but thinks she needs the seat all the way down???!!!) plowed the box side panel into a parked car when she tried to do a right turn. I need a flight deck crew with yellow helmits permanently standing outside my truck. (It was 3 weeks old) sniff......
