If the car is missing the sensors in the front, it should also be missing them in the back as well. Those sensors are for the "park assist" option. That would be what's missing option-wise from the ISF.

You dont need those options. The parking sensors is just gonna make you forget how to park.

I love my parking sensors.. sure you can park without it but in tight spaces, its good to have them guide you.

^Same here. It doesn't make me completely reliant on the sensors, but combined with the rear view camera, it's a lot easier to gauge how close you are when reversing.

To the OP- if the F you're looking at doesn't have the headlamp washers and the parking sensors, it most likely doesn't have radar cruise control either (glossed "L" emblem in front as opposed to the traditional L with the holes for air flow). Are there any pictures of it to get a better sense of what you're looking at?
