Yeah, I believe I ran it along the bottom of the interior instead of dealing with all the pillars. Unless you create a custom mount of the rear cam, you're going to have interference with the sunshade. My solution is to not use the sunshade.
i might have to try and go through the bottom instead if seeing the wires bother me enough.
I went with a fitcamx for mine. It looks OEM and you can't really tell it's there. Regardless of camera, the rear sunshade might interfere with rear mounting so you might have to get creative. I decided to just velcro it to the plastic above my rear view mirror. Seems to be working well enough and I'll probably mount it a little more securely eventually.
I also picked up a BlendMount and mirror tap for my Radenso. If you go with the BlendMount you might want to buy a few link extensions to make sure the radar detector gets pushed forward and down far enough, especially if you go with a fitcam. I need to buy at least one more link. Other than that I'm quite happy with the setup.
I was looking to do this setup as well. Is there anything special you had to do to mirror tap the fitcam and radar detector?
Check this too. I have the Escort direct wire smartcord back to the fuse box as well as the FitCamX. I ran the rear cable/camera to the brake light cover. This allows me to utilize the shade screen without issue.

I have the FitcamX on RC, I know it adds an adapter that plugs into the factory harness spot to power the dashcam. Did you mirror tap your radar detector as well even with the Fitcam?
