    Has anyone else had the minor annoyance of noticing that the qi charger compartment light reflects in their rear view mirror? I do have a topper so IDK if this reflection is present without a topper. I am thinking about disabling this light. Has anyone else done this? If so was it easily done? Thanks!

    Mine doesn’t. But those crap chrome air vent rings reflect in the side mirrors and drive me crazy, and no matter how I position myself or the mirrors I can’t get rid of the reflection.

    Reflections from the back window into the rearview mirror have happened in every pickup truck I've ever owned. The shorter the cab the more noticeable it is. I've learned to ignore it.

    I can see the light in the back glass. It doesn’t really bother me though.

    I just close my eyes while driving. Solves lots of problems. Ok, mine doesn’t reflect like that.

    Thinking of adding some sort of deflector so only shines down

    Glad I’m not the only one
