The plastic films on my Rivian R1S displays are still intact.

Is it just me, or do others leave the protective film on too? Planning to trim the tabs for a seamless look. The tabs are asking me to pull them off lol

Any pros/cons if I leave the factory installed films on?

Update: I took them off. It wasn’t as hard as I thought

After holding out for a week, I’ve given in to the pressure from my prior thread and said goodbye to my trusty factory screen protectors. Treading new waters here, AMA on what it’s like to finally have clear displays

@firerock31 I don't know how much protection that actually provides, also I think it causes more glare? I have the matte version of this on mine: https://twraps.com/products/screen-protectors-for-rivian-r1t-r1s

I really like it. Cuts down the glare a lot for the main screen. Although you do lose some brightness.

I left the plastic film on my car’s display as long as I could as well (until I put a new protective screen on it)

What on earth is that GPS map? Looks like something out of the early aughts.

I think it's from Mapbox. The traffic and routing data is from Google Maps

Left it on until I had screen protectors, which wasn’t too long 😅.
