Normal. It bugs me that when backing in the dark that the brake lights blast out the view with brightness so that i can't see where I'm going!

I recall reading another thread like this. There seems to be a mix of people who can see their plate and others that dont.

I think we have a situation where a 2 degree difference in how the camera is aimed makes a more than expected difference in what the camera sees. Previous threads w/ similar experiences tells me it is not worth worrying about.
