I mounted the view screen up by my sun visors (with a home made screw on bracket) and ran the wires along the windshield pillar. The suction cup thing is worthless. I don't even have an E body, they work on lost of stuff.


I have a more expensive one (Furrion) on my camper and the lens got all blurry, I had nothing to loose so I wet sanded my camera lens with (I think it was ) 600 grit and now it’s clear again. Just a fine polish was all it needed to remove UV or whatever was making it cloudy. Sounds scary but it worked…..found that info online somewhere.
