Window Shield and Moon Roof Accessory for your R1T

Now that I've installed the SnapPlate front license plate holder, I finally filled out the EveryAmp review. Here it is. Hope it helps others: Shipped promptly, so the license plate holder arrived well before we picked up the car. Engineered and built VERY precisely to hold the plate very close to the front bumper without scraping. Installation instructions were clear, would have benefited from one more picture showing how to find the center slots in the grille. Grille Depth Adjustment instructions were also clear; with one half-turn adjustment of three screws, the license plate holder fit PERFECTLY in place. Check the EveryAmp web site for photographs of how much their product blocks the front camera image at every setting. After reviewing the photos, I chose the center setting. I find the camera interference at that setting is trivial for me. There's a lot of competition for the front-of-R1 real estate. My understanding is that Rivian's front plate holder requires drilling a hole in a perfectly good vehicle, and can also block a small part of the camera image. Tow hook mounts take a tow hook out of commission, and can block a sensor. EveryAmp's mount is designed to protect the grille by snapping off when attacked by a car-wash brush, so you have to dismount it (relatively easy to do) and remount it before washing. I'm still happy with the EveryAmp product, which we have installed in our R1S and now R1T. Very best wishes!

I recently got the idea of putting a window shield up in my vehicle when it's parked anywhere outside of my garage, and it has always kept the interior not only cooler but in perfect condition. At night, I put it up for privacy, and with tinted windows you can’t see anything (especially with BM interior). I’ve been using the Costco jumbo size shade for my R1T and it works fine.

The windshield shade fits great, but possibly more minor gaps compared to the oversize Costco shade. It fits much closer to the windshield and is significantly thicker, so I expect it will block out more heat.

The moonroof one also fits well with the supplied suction cups. It says to only use in a parked car, but I’m a risk taker haha. If you’re somewhere in the desert, tinting the moonroof might be a smart option as it does get a little warm in direct midday sun, but not unbearable here in FL. The company has shades available for every window in both Rivians, so give them a try if you’re looking for some shade in your new investment.
