Be careful out there, seems a few have forgotten the few extra inches above the roofline:

Definitely something to watch, though I didn’t option the clearsight camera, so might be a bit cheaper if I do forget. One car park I do use my 90 definitely won’t fit under the barrier, even if I took air suspension it would be touch and go. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

having a rack or bars provides the relevant protection to the antenna (though theimpact of a hit will be much larger Rolling Eyes )

I know a 2.0m height limit means I will have to be in access mode to get under it going forwards - I'm probably going to go do a trial run at the local time during a quiet period to be certain! Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

That damage looks like it just needs a little bit of superglue. Thumbs Up

Carefully of course. Whistle

Perhaps the Clearsite camera needs to point forwards...... Whistle

Been thinking about this before as I paid dearly already, too.

Or if there was a vertical red bar showing your height limit in the mirror

Or would wade sensors turned upside down give you sky sensors?

did you get the casing sorted for your clear site camera in the end.
got the same issue with mine, been quoted £180 inc vat because you need the whole casing and £600 for 3 hours labour to fit. seems a bit excessive to me when all i need is the top part of the casing, so labour should be about 5 minutes. did you buy the case and fit it yourself in the end.

PowerfulUK do some dummy shark fins, maybe one could be cannibalised to fit? Current vehicle: 2020 Defender 110S

Removing Shark Fin Camera Cover
Does anyone have a tip or tool to remove the existing rearview mirror camera cover/shark fin on my 2021 Defender 110 from the outside (vs. removing the headliner inside cab)? I can see the brackets inside cover, but I cannot pop them out. Thanks in advance!
