Some info on the ClearFilm:
- The installler cut the film on a plotter, and downloaded the pattern in the computer from the Mfg which included a provision for the PA and headlamp washers; the front bumper is one piece split on the lower lip.
- There is a separate piece on the lower lip also
- It was about a 9hr installation, done by the dealer before delivery.

So its cut out for the PA... Looks good.... I can't really tell if there is anything on the actualy sensor or not ???
Thank You

No, it's cut around the sensor but it's so close to the disc itself that it is hard to pick out, and it's exactly round and not stretched out-of-round that I've seen often on other installs. Again, the installer did an excellent job.

Yes - I agree!!!
However, the painted area of the sensor wouldn't be protected from rock chips and such.
Would a small circle piece over the sensor work???
Kinda like the Headlamp washer pieces..
I have heard of some installers just putting it over the entire area and not even cutting out or around the sensors.. (I haven't seen any pics)

True, but it's such a small area that it's really not of a concern for me - but possible.
It's my understanding that if you cover the PA sensors that you will render them inoperable; or they will manufunction.
