Dual dash cams with rear power shade?

Downeaster1 · 10-30-2019, 07:47 PM

Hey all,
Was wondering if anyone was running front and rear dash cams with a power rear shade? I rarely use the rear shade, but it would be nice to know I can if need be. Thoughts? Thanks!

The rear sunshade will clear the rear camera if placed on or near the brake light housing.

Thinkware rear camera did not have clearance issues for me.

Here is where I have mine mounted. I put it there to not interfere with the sun shade...

BlackVue DR590W-2CH. It is mounted on the edge of the 3rd brake light plastic trim piece, closest to the rear glass.
