Default rear sunshade

Without going to the dealer, is there a way to keep the rear sunshade from retracting when shifting into reverse? Thanks

i don't think so,,, it would be a safety feature. i barely notice it anymore because my shade is up all the time.

I like the shade up, as well. The shade in my MB stays up, when shifting in reverse. Never had a vision problem with it staying up

You can change the delay for the time til it goes down you put it in reverse and you can turn it off. but no, you need Techstream for it to work.
