Question

Hi there
I've searched the site but have not found any mention of the horrid glare you get when the sun shines on the dashboard of my Scooby MY00!
I can't believe I'm the only one that's experiencing this problem. I heard that the rally versions are covered in a non-reflective cloth (suede?)to counter this problem. Whether that's true or not I do not know! I know that driving down woody country lanes in the sunshine can be quite treacherous if the sun is shining straight ahead!

I know it is really only sunny for 2 weeks per year here in Blighty but I'd still like to know if anyone knows of any aftermarket coverings that can be used!

Cheers

Chris

Hi Chris
I think you'll find that the rally cars use Alcantara, it's like suede but man-made.
I do get this sometimes, but like you said the sun ain't out that much anyway!
It might pay to use ap[olish on the dash that doesn't make it shine so much.
