2015 RX350 trunk trim panel removal Q (rear dash cam install)
I'm in the process of installing a dual front/rear dashcam (Aukey DR02D). I've managed to run the USB cable all the way to the back to the trunk, but I'm having a problem pulling off the trim that's above the glass to hide the wire. Anyone know if it's just clips that hold it in? And if anyone has tips on whether to use the right or left flex conduit to route the USB cable?
I do have pictures of my install process and plan to post them for anyone else who might want to do the same thing in their RX... I couldn't seem to find a post here about dashcam install from start to finish.

Definitely looking forward to the install pics!! I’m looking to do the same alongwith my Valentine One detector.
Thanks in advance!

There is no detector for LIDAR. Waste of money.
Lidar has a narrow beam, and easily targets an individual vehicle, thereby eliminating the need for visual estimation,[3][1] and some models can record an image of the license plate at the same instant as recording the speed violation. Speed estimation takes less than half a second, which, together with the narrow, targeted beam, results in offending vehicles having little warning even when using an evasion device. Lidar can measure the distance between vehicles to detect 'too close' (tailgating) infringements. The speed of a vehicle in the shadow of another vehicle cannot be measured.

Evasion
A number of jurisdictions prohibit any methods to thwart speed limit enforcement, and lidar manufacturers endeavour to stay ahead of detection avoidance measures.Current lidar devices have a horizontal beam width of one meter at 300 meters, compared to the registration plate width of 30 cm, ensuring that little of the signal is scattered to following vehicles. Detecting the LIDAR signal in advance is difficult as the tight beam, short signal duration and targeting of individual vehicles minimizes scatter of the LIDAR signal to following or adjacent vehicles. Modifying the vehicle to deflect, absorb or jumble the signal is difficult, as it is typically the registration plate that is targeted. Modifying the registration plate is easily detected and may not be legal. Returning a false separate signal will be detected by current police lidar models and may be not be legal, depending on the jurisdiction.Thread
