Default How can I tell if I have rear bumper sensors?

I know it sounds like a dumb question - I have a 2015 GT and I've bought a Roush axle-back kit which includes a rear bumper adapter to make room for the quad-tip exhaust. When I back up I don't have the proximity sensors that beep when I get close to something. so I figured I didn't have the backup sensors and ordered the Roush adapter for that setup. But the other day while backing up, I did get an "oncoming traffic alert" when a car drove past me. So now I'm not sure, and I don't want to find out after I have the rear clip off that I have to return the piece that I bought. Is there any easy way to tell if I have sensors without taking things apart?

Unless the 2015 is radically different, the sensors are about 4 round small "dots" spread along the bumper from one side to the other.

He's right. Did you pay for BLIS & Backup Parking etc.?

The back up sensors are a stand alone option, the cross traffic alert is part of another package so I assume you can have one or the other or both.
