I have a slightly anoying glare on my windshield at night. The display for the speedo casts a green bar right about my eye level. I'm 6'4" so it doesnt bother my wife or daughter who are shorter, but it's right in my line of sight, about 1/2" high and about 6" wide. I'm looking to see if I can cover the display with something and not block any of the display. Possibly a small piece of black plastic to create an angled hood. I'll come up with a fix, and if anyone else is having the same problem, I'll share my results.
Yes it is, I just didnt think the readout should show on the windshield at any brightness, at least not a bright defined line. I'll try to post a pic tomorrow.

Sometimes I turn the brightmess down to it's lowest just before it disapears. I just don't like the brightness in front of me anyway. On a few occasions it's been so late and so dark outside that even the muted colors of the "MFD-with-headlights-on" is too much and I turn the display off. I just find it easier on the peepers.
I'm always a bit surprised that all these people with the display set to maximum brightness are complaining about the little bit of reflection on the windscreen at night, rather than the dazzling bright green dash readout and MFD shining right in their face (!)
