    To people with the premium tech package that are puting aftermarket bumpers on that dont support bsm and back up sensors what are you doing with the components? Pulling them off and plugging the connector? Leaving them? Curious to know what everyone is doing.

    What I have seen has been one of 3 things:
    Wonder why you care about the electronic stuff and realize they don't belong on your offroad rig, thus buying a good bumper.
    Understand the sensors can't work through metal and keep the plastic bumper.
    Buy the @C4 Fabrication Overland Series rear bumper with blind spot monitor support and enjoy the best of both worlds.

    I unplugged the connector for BSM and taped off the ends. My back up sensors are on my new aftermarket bumper. Not sure if they work or not because I’ve never used them...
