2024 RR front bumper area, passenger side of IC lower intake just to the passenger side of the sensor in the middle of the IC opening there is a metal bracket with what looks like a couple rivnuts. Anyone have any idea what this is was designed for?

Anyone know if it can be removed easily or does the whole front bumper need to come off to access it? I want to add some lights in the are and would rather that bracket not be there.

TIA.

Just guessing, but maybe for the Auto Cruise Control module? Or do you already have the ACC?

Ranger Raptor has Adaptive Cruise Control not sure if that is the same thing and there is nothing mounted on top of it either. Strange that there is this bracket with nothing mounted to it. Perhaps something carried over from overseas design or maybe something used in Canada and they add to all Rangers?

I have also reached out to another RR owner and he confirmed his has the same bracket.

You are right, Adaptive Cruise. But I see you already have that.
