I have a 21 Lariat. When driving down the road at certain times of day Nd in certain directions sun reflects off the trim below my sync screen effectively blinding me. The picture doesn't really show how bad it is..

Many have wrapped theirs with a black matte or gray matte finish and it's helped with the glare.

I believe that might be the Holy Light “shining on down” on your bezel. ;)

yes, hold your hand up between the glare and your face. Just saved you a lot of money.

Window tint might help. Maybe have a strip run across the top of the windshield to help with that high noon glare.
That is something I have considered. I may take the $10 gamble and try it.

I think to effectively block, the tint would have to go below the AS1 line. If it wasn't for yearly inspection and nite driving I'd just tint the whole windshield lol.

Not being a smart aleck, but sunglasses would be a simple solution.

Oops, just saw BettaRanga’s post. :)
