Fitcam Fit

[Adil]

Hi Everyone, I can't get the fitcam to fit properly. Whenever I clip in the last clip, the one metal clip in the front right area, this gap opens up. I routed the cable carefully to avoid pinching. Anyone else having problems?

A number of us used a heat gun to warp the housing in order to close that gap. See the main FitcamX thread. I believe you can use a hair dryer but it will take longer. I over-corrected mine and had to loosen it back up.

Thanks, fixed it with a heat gun. Much better now

I have once done the heat gun trick to my wife's Camry B pillar trim to eliminate a gap. You basically can mold any plastic to any shape you want, but just don't over heat it or you'll ruin its surface pattern.

I heated the back side.

I heated the back side.

It’s sitting under the Christmas tree. That was my plan as well.

I heated the back side.

I can see a gap on the right side. Bending the end away from the ceiling a bit might minimize it.

I’m bummed they didn’t fix this after being told about it.

I’m not smart about this stuff. Can you explain how to use the heat gun to bend it correctly? Just heat and bend by hand? Any tips for a total noob? Thanks.
