23 Platinum Iconic Silver
Added this to my 23 Platinum that had the deletion at factory. This is a fantastic cheap and simple mod. I had this feature on my old F-150 and liked having it for the extra piece of mind.

As a side note my dad's '23 gas F-150 which was built the same week as mine also had the delete. Before ordering the part I pulled down the overhead console and crazy as it may sound he already had the sensors. They just didn't activate them. So plugged in Forscan and now he has the feature as well.

I also think it's a little funny that the blank dummy piece also has an official part number.

2023 Ford Lightning Lariat
I noticed my Lariat has a fine, somewhat see through mesh covering the slots where the sensors go. Does this affect operation in any way? Should I remove it?

I was looking on eBay before I purchased said part from ford online parts dealer; the eBay post had the official part number on the title and details but showed the dummy box in the pictures :mad:

I got this installed over the weekend, but it does not seem very sensitive. If my window is open I can stick my arm in and it does not go off.

You need to get closer to the middle of the vehicle near the console / cup holder area which is where most thieves will be poking around.

I don't think you want it to be super-sensitive. On my last F-150 I had a moth living in my truck and it set off the motion sensor multiple times every night until I finally got it out.
