Default Where is the BLIS radar?

I just picked up a 2017 F-150 XLT SCAB 4x4 3.5l EcoBoost with BLIS/Cross Traffic Alert built on 5/22/17. I was thinking that the radar sensor was in the door mounted mirrors, but the tail light has "BLINDSPOT RADAR" printed on the lens.

A. The radar sensor is in the door mirror and they just printed that on the tail light lens.

B. The radar sensor is in the tail light.

C. The radar sensor is in both places and I have BLIS w/Trailer Coverage even though that wasn't supposed to be available except on the Super Duty trucks.

Yep, that picture is just like mine.

Now I know I am safe to add a convex mirror to the bottom left corner of the driver side door mirror. (BLIS may be bliss (pun intended), but I never completely trust technology.)

BLIS is in the tailights, adaptive cruise is in the front bumper drivers side
