Manufacturers on most options I’ve seen thus far also give caution notes that these swing bars may likely interfere with cross traffic/backing sensors AND obstruct backing camera.

SO… rethinking this possibility.

This is an issue on the new Toyota Land Cruiser as well. But there is a button to disable those sensors/features so you can still drive with it. The Passport should have something similar.

Apparently you can drive in TOW mode to disable rear sensors.
