Front parking sensors

Hey Guys
I just bought a 2013 F-150 Limited and would like to have parking sensors on the front of the truck. I see that Ford has front parking sensors as an accessory but the dealer I spoke to said they only put them on the Fusion, not trucks. Has anyone installed parking sensors on the front, was it a DYI or did you have an aftermarket shop handle it. Is there a way to tie them in to the existing system or do I have to have a separate module installed that flashes/beeps etc.
Thanks for any help!

Anything to do with sensors that are used for collision mitigation, parking, etc will have to be tied into a control module of some sorts. Most likely this will not be an easy install and considering they dont even offer it in any F150s I doubt the CAN messages would even support such a change.
