How well (or not well) do the oracle flush mounts work with the factory blind spot/turn signal sensors? I love the look and want to buy a set but my wife and my 17 year old daughter drive the Jeep 99% of the time and I’d like to make sure the functionality is still there.

For the most part the you just place your BSM sensor in the enclosure and it just works. If you lift your vehicle then we suggest putting a 3mm shim in the top portion to angle the sensor where it will pick up lower objects as with OEM.

Ok thanks, the Jeep is lifted, is the shim something you sell or include with the lights?

If your Jeep is lifted and/or has large wheels, the BSM may only be picking up tall vehicles (trucks, 18-wheelers, etc). If this is the case, some 3mm thickness foam tape may need to be added to shim inside the sensor cavity to aim the sensors further downward. Vertical adjustment would only be necessary on vehicles where the sensor is greater than 1 meter distance from the ground.Once you've added the first set of 3M foam shims, go for a test drive. If the BSM is still not picking up properly then they need to add more 3M Foam

This is something you could pick up at your local hardware store.
