Default Front bumper airbag sensor

Does anyone know EXACTLY where this sensor is on my 2002 1/2T 2WD. I removed a lift kit, which required me to remove and reinstall the front grille and bumper. I don't remember seeing anything with any wires leading to it in this area.
Any help is appreciated.

My guess is it's on the frame behind the bumper/behind the grille area. It's supposed to be one of the first items to know if you're involved in a crash. Look for yellow wires.

Why do you ask? Also, there should be two sensors for redundancy and only deploy in specific situations.
