Will Hopkins Backup Sensor System Work With 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500  

Question:

How well will the Hopkins Backup Sensor System - Audible Alert - License Bracket Mount Item # HM60100VA work on a 2020 Chevy Silverado pickup truck? Will it still have a distance of 5-5-/1/2 when backing up even though it is not flush with the bumper?

Helpful Expert Reply:

The distance of 5-1/2 feet is measured from the sensors on the Hopkins # HM60100VA. If installing this on your 2020 Silverado means you have a few inches between where the sensors are located and the edge of your bumper then you would need to account for that when backing up.

As with any vehicle proximity sensors, there is going to be a bit of a buffer with the warnings so I don't think you will have a problem. Following the installation, I would stick a box or something similar behind the truck and play around with it so you have a good idea for the remaining distance based on the frequency of the beeping.
