I am *hopefully* going to become a G owner pretty soon and I was just curious about the nav screen. I searched but didnt find my answer, but if you are wearing polarized sunglasses, is the nav LCD still easy to see? i know a lot of LCD's are very hard to see through a polarized lens unless you **** your head sideways..... but what about the G's?

thanks

 

It is polarised. I have a pair of RayBans which you have to tilt 45 degrees to either blank out the screen or have it at brightest. I reverted to my Serengetti drivers - better lenses and coatings anyway.

 

I have perscription Maui Jim Hoku's with the fancy polarized lenses and my 2006 oem nav is fine. If I tilt my head it will fade but normal straight on reading is fine and plenty bright.

 

bummer... i've got a nice pair of maui jims that i love, oh well no big deal though

 

bummer?


I said it works fine. You wont have issues unless you drive with your head tilted way over.

 

we sent our replies at the same time, so yours was posted while i was typing mine..... therefore hadnt read it yet..... but anyway thats awesome, i love my MJs and im glad that ill love looking at the nav screen through them

 

I agree... my MJs work just fine.

 

excellent, thanks guys!

 

I wear Spy Optic Espada polarized and they work fine (but then again I have an 03.5 model).

 

yeap, i have a pair of maui jin also it works perfect with the stock nav

 

I had some polarized glasses and they were fine with the nav.

 

Mine looks fie with my sunglasses on.

 

I got my Oakley's rolling with me and have never had a problem. I look at some windshields when they are on and those spots sure look funny. But again no issues with the Navi.
