You have a point but there are many differences between mobius and #16 ( optics, cmos sensor, colour settings / filters, wdr etc ).
I have tested Albatross2 at night mounted 1.5cm from rear centre brake light and all worked fine.

If positioned as in my post #3, then also it worked fine.
I have more hopes for B lens, because they extend about 5mm, maybe this also can help.
Of course 100% confirmation can be only after built in test.
I also was thinking about fake rear barake light but for sure not moving hidden dashcam to the bottom, it will have small vertical view ( my car has bonnet ), if hatchback then its fine.
Better to disconnect leds from main top brake light where camera will be built in and add fully working brake to the bottom.
Also i was thinking to disconnect 1/3 of centre leds in the main brake light, this way there will not be colour problems in mobius recordings at night and i keep oem look of brake light without need to add adfitional "fake" brake light.
I think this last option is more suitable for me.
