Seem to remember someone saying they got lots of glare on the screen?

How did you get round this? I'd imagine painting it a dark colour would help?

Thought the glare come from the dash?

Hence having a flocked dash?

The glare comes from the dash being shiney? Which is why people flock their dash, so its no longer shiney?

I think

Didn't really want it to be matt black inside, was just going to touch up the areas with white so it all matched

Didn't think about that, what are you doing to solve that problem?

Feck all? Or are you going to add weight & fit a surround?
