Front parktronic sensors

Hey guys I have a sensor that is sticking on usually when it rains on the front left side of the car. I bought three brand new sensors and replaced the outer one by the marker light but I was wondering what the quickest easiest way to replace the other two would be. I know that whole impact strip comes off but I'm a little leary of messing it up trying to take it off.. if there was a way I could just get an arm up to then I could switch them with my borescope.

Any ideas are appreciated!

Thanks

I don't have it handy with me at the moment but it's an 06 S55 with the Parktroic system. I think they are all the same right?

The only other way will be from behind the bumper bud. You did mention doing front end work so that might work.

Thanks but they are replacing the front suspension not touching the bumper I will see if I can get behind it easily somehow. Otherwise I'll need to remove the impact strip I guess which I was hoping not to do.
