    Accessories restrictions with surround camera

    With the surround camera, I'm wondering which add-ons will interfere with cameras.

    I suspect a bull bar will pose problems with the front camera; will a spare wheel carrier such as the one from 4x4DE pose problems with the rear camera?

    The cameras mounted:
    Under the side mirrors
    Under the rear door opener/handle
    and two on the front bumper about half way between the number plate and the corner of the car on each side.

    I imagine that the only problem would be the roo/bull bar. Of the five cameras I personally very rarely use the fronts anyway.

    The rear camera will be obstructed by the wheel carrier and unless you can move the front cameras to the bullbar, they will be useless.

    Okay, so no bullbar then; saves some weight. Am still considering the rear wheel carrier due to access issues, although don't have any intention ATM to have a second tank. I think the 4x4DE carrier, if like other rear wheel carriers I've seen, can be removed, except for the spike and locking pin if not required.

    Opposite Lock bull bar has provision for the cameras to move into the bar itself, not a problem in the world and doesn't change the view.

    Cheers
