• Use a small drill bit at the pre-marked cross locations on the bumper.
• Widen with a larger drill as needed.
• Use a heat gun to avoid cracking the paint during drilling.
• Ensure clean, precise cuts with a proper hole-making tool.

🧼 Step 4: Install PDC Holders

• Clean the area with IPA or similar solution.
• If PDC holders don’t fit snugly, trim off excess material.
• Stick holders in place and insert the sensors.

🔌 Step 5: Wiring
