How to choose Rivian R1T and R1S screen protectors
By ReferCharge. Updated 2026-08-17.
Start with the exact displays covered by the kit, then choose between glossy clarity and matte glare reduction. Accurate dimensions and a dust-free install matter most.
Check every display in the set
- Confirm which displays are included: center, driver and second-row screens may be sold together or separately.
- Treat Gen 1 as 2022–2024 and Gen 2 as 2025+, then follow only the years and screen sizes stated by the listing.
- Check that cutouts, edges and curves match the display shown in the listing photos.
- Choose a clean, still installation area before removing any protective film.
Matte versus glossy
CLARITY
Glossy glass
- Keeps a clear, glass-like appearance and saturated color.
- Shows reflections and fingerprints more readily in bright conditions.
GLARE
Matte film or glass
- Diffuses reflections and can make fingerprints less obvious.
- Can soften fine text or add a slight texture to touch input.
Stop if alignment would cover a sensor, edge or control area. Recheck the listing and the maker's installation steps before pressing the protector down.

Common questions
How many Rivian displays need a protector?
That is a preference, not a requirement. Three-piece kits commonly address the center, driver and rear displays, while rear-display products may be sold separately.
Is matte better than glossy?
Matte prioritizes glare reduction and less-visible fingerprints; glossy prioritizes clarity. Neither finish can compensate for incorrect screen dimensions.
Do Gen 1 and Gen 2 use the same protector?
Use one product across generations only when the maker lists the relevant vehicles and years. Gen 1 is 2022–2024 and Gen 2 is 2025+ for this guide.
How can dust bubbles be reduced during installation?
Clean the display and surrounding area as the protector maker directs, align before lowering the adhesive side and avoid touching that surface. A trapped speck usually must be lifted out rather than pushed flat.
