Disconnect specific sensors on PDC

Put a euro plate on front of the X, of course now the PDC won't shut off. Is there anyway to disconnect the sensors to the left and right of the plate but have the corners be active? Unless anyone else has an idea.

Greatly appreciated.

All sensors have to be connected or the system will emmit a constant fault tone when active. Why not relocate the sensors away from the plates? Any pics?

i was hoping not to have to relocate them. it is a 05 so the sensors are in standard position i assume. anyone with PDC and a euro plate do anything different?

I could always take it off of course but the truck is white and the euro looks super clean with it.

I know one person on this forum who said the dealer had to bend the plate alot to make it fit.

Weasel will become famous soon enough
I'd imagine there will be some sort of different sensor positioning on the euro models that actually need that plate and have pdc... I'd make that inquiry with the parts counter personnel at the dealer. It may simply involve different plastic trim fillers in the bumper cover.
