Livinitup, Have you changed your tpms for your 35" tires? I run 50-55psi in mine but I think they were 35 on the original.

I spent all of this past weekend trying to get a "factory" front parking aid working on our trucks. I bought 4 sensors, 4 terminals for a BCM connector, and wired it all up. I then changed settings in the PAM module to tell it the truck now had front parking aid and 10 sensors instead of 6. I was hoping to be able to report good news today but my window of opportunity ran out and I had to disconnect everything this morning cause as you can see from the pics below, I installed everything loosely and had sensors taped to bumper. I was hoping to get audible chimes working at the very least and also wanted enhanced ability for Active Park Assist (Park Out & better Perpendicular Park).
I kept the wire harness I made intact so if any new info comes my way I may revisit this in the future.

It was nice to have the extra bezel to find out how things came apart.
If you have covered blank openings where a switch is supposed to be, the electronic board underneath doesn't have any connections there, so they have different boards for the different option packages.
When I swapped Bezels, I got a few DTC's, so I tried putting my VIN in and my AB, but things still didn't quite work correctly, I kept getting a message for the left temperature sensor was missing or something to that effect.
I'd have to take it apart again to take photos, although I could use the extra one I have now.

It can be.. I used it for a while and it worked without issue.
They have since updated firmware for it and it is much more stable.
I'd only get this one if you have an iPhone/iPad and want to use the FORScan app to monitor PIDs and DTC's.
Other than that get the bluetooth one.
