Serious sun glare on center display
I have searched this forum as well as internet in general. There does not seem to be an effective solution for this issue. I am thinking a thin piece of black plastic the width of the screen with a 1.5 to 2 inch over hanging the screen possibly affixed to the dash with thin piece of velcro or double side tape for ease of removal. Would be nice to find this center piece with 2 sides attached. Found one on the net but was for other car models not for the 08 G35 . Plus the reviews were terrible. Anyone else have trouble seeing the screen bc of sun glare? Cannot imagine the films being sold as anti glare being effective - plus the most legitimate sounding company selling these omits 08 G35

Gee i should have been more specific. The main display that contains the navigation screen along with the other info. There are about 3 hours a day on the interstates i travel where the sun coming from the windshield cause the glare. I will get a pic as soon as i can. Thank you for your help Larry

no i was talking about the sun hitting the screen of my navigation/main screen through the windshield causing me not to be able to see the screen well AT ALL for 3 or so hours every single sunny day. Good ole Cleric thinking outside the box may have come up with the best idea - the windshield speciality screen tint. !! I am going to ask a friend who actually does window tinting for a living. I am going to remember the vinyl wrap thing in the future also because glare from dash into windshield has been a problem in my other auto. Thank you both very much. Larry

I've not been much bothered by this except on a few occasions. The above product seems to have good reviews for other cars - changed the link to what I think is a better product per other car reviews. I am going to try it out myself, as it's only $16 shipped. Will apply and and crank up the display brightness to the max = (hopefully) profit. Windshield tinting is definitely going to help, but will be additional $$.
