Double dins for roadsters
I have an Alpine double din unit with a backup camera attached. The sun washes out the camera when behind the car and also washes out the screen when the top is down. Has anyone found a unit that can handle the sunshine? I'm looking for Nav and Sirius XM in the unit as well

Thanks, I was hoping someone had found a stereo with a screen similar to a kindle screen that you can read in the sun, or at least a very good backup camera that can deal with the light. My technology is 8 years old, someday someone will help us ragtop owners.

What type of backup camera do you currently have? Does it replace one of the license plate lights like this?
I have one similar to this that I got in 2011. I don't think it gets too much washout from the sun.
But as for the screen on the head unit - yeah, almost impossible to see in direct sunlight.

Thats the life of exposure and light.
I have a 2015 with one of the best camrras I've used. My gf has a 15 accord with a good camera as well. We also have a 2012, 2014 accords and civics, 2013 XJ 15 F150's and 2014 mini and a couple others. Basically everone I live with or immediate family got new cars the last 4 years.
They all get washed out with the CA sun. It happens. Sometime you just gatta look back. The nerve of some things right? lol
