Rear view Camera compatible with full bed rack?

[larkhen]

Does anyone know if the full ARB bed rack like the one shown here will block the rear view mirror/camera feed? It seems like the ARB sports bar will not but curious if anyone has this part yet

It won't work. Get GG.OFFROAD's relocation kit.

yup I am thinking of getting that relocation kit for my truck too when my camper comes in.

I just ordered the full ARB bed rack. The dealer had this rack installed on a TRD OR, and it is installed above both cameras located in the center high mount stop light assembly. However, the dealer did not have the HD kit installed. As the HD kit is essentially a thick tube that is installed below the roof slats, this may block a portion of the digital rearview camera. Can anyone confirm?

I finally installed the ARB rack. Here's a pic of the digital mirror so you can see how much is covered by the rack. It's definitely usable without the camera location kit.

pmfh , is your ARB rack stock or did you get it installed? Nevermind I read your last post, was it self install or dealer install? If dealer installed how much did they charge you?

I had the dealer install it. After reading the 60 page installation manual I decided it was not worth burning an entire weekend installing it myself. The rack itself seems straight forward enough and would only take about 3 hours. However, running the wiring for the hight mount stop light is a huge job. The dealer charged me 8 hours @ $125/hr, but the job ended up taking them almost 16 hours. Yep, I'm glad I had them do it

What dealership did it? My local dealer said they wouldn't touch it due to my spray in bed liner?
