Now the sun is out, how annoying is the dashboard reflection in the windscreen?!?!? The perforations for the air con/fan is extremely disruptive to the visibility. So much so this has to be considered a design faulty surely.

Try looking above the reflection and you will see how clear visibility is if the perforations werent there.

Extremely annoying on a long trip in the sun, so much so I will be covering mine with some plain old cardboard.

Hi Johnny,
I've not particularly noticed this on sunny days. Having said that, my sunglasses have polarized lenses and maybe this helps with the dashboard reflections?

I noticed that on my current e class there are reflections of the centre grill and occasionally the hud housing. I think it is a feature that will arise in any car dependent on conditions.

Someone else posted about the reflection issue.
I have a pair of lightly shaded polarised sunglasses and they definitely cut out most of the reflections.

Same here. Its a nightmare. I've been driving around with my black gym towel lying across the dash for the last 6 months to hide the reflection
