Ok Guys, the topic title probably says it all. Under certain lighting conditions my dash reflects quite strongly in the windscreen and reduces visibility/ is annoying. Is this an inherent issue with R32's(Dash shape & windscreen angle)?

Any good fixes without resorting to a 80's style dash carpet?

I would suggest you get your car's windows tinting (if it's no already)... darkest legal would be good... then on a really sunday day... wind your windows up.. that's about all I can suggest...

i get this problem too.

it does hinder visibility alot when all you can see is your own dash in the windscreen.

but given the angle of the windscreen i dont think theres much that can be done about it

unless someone has some super awesome ideas

this happens in all cars... and it doesn't even matter about tinting or what you use on the dash, in fact you can even have carpet there and it will still show a reflection, your glass is shiny... my 22 year old ute gets this... what can you do glass is shiny stuff..

maybe matt the inside of the your glass with clear matt... hehehe

wearing polarized sunglasses remove any reflection you see in the window.

How Do Polarized Lenses Work?

Light reflected from surfaces like a flat road or smooth water is generally horizontally polarized. This horizontally polarized light is blocked by the vertically oriented polarizers in the lenses.

The result: a reduction in annoying and sometimes dangerous glare.

2 ideas for you:

1. Trim your dash in expensive leather and put a TV screen in it so when you are driving, you can admire your beautiful dash and watch a DVD.

2. Take your front window out and wear those sexy goggles like a WW1 fighter pilot.

Problem solved!!

    • The odometer does go up when driving.  Does this tell it is an issue with the speedometer itself?    Where can I look for replacement cluster? Or speedo? I can likely do the repair.. Will ER34 cluster work on HR34? Or do I need a HR34 20GT S2 specifically lol   
    • Mine's a bit bigger at 70x150mm roughly. The spots are flat, just can feel the edges if I dig my nail into it. I did fix some other other ones by both using my finger to sand that small spot (I'm a bit wary of doing this and creating hot spots and a bigger mess) and I also did sand over it flat and others, but this also worried me a bit because if I create an overall low spot on the panel on paint that is good.  Correct me if I'm wrong but as long as it's flat even if I can feel the edges, I can put filler because it will all be level once I sand it? I can see myself going in a circle after sanding guidecoat with 320 grit if for example the panel is flat with my hand but because I sanded the guidecoat I could have created a low spot again somewhere. Unless where I'm going wrong is what I mentioned previously where I didn't go low enough on the grits. It's 1 step forward and 2 step backwards here haha. I'll probably need to experiment with it more. Last time I go back to bare metal lol.
    • Thanks for the details mate , for me I think being a daily driven and happy with a basic tune (630Nm and 310kw) . Seems to be working well I just put on a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 should help put the power down. I'm going to start looking a brakes and LSD in the future so I might reach out to you on options to upgrade the brakes. Cheers - Dee   
    • I have a HR34 GT... RB20DE My speedo doesn't work! The rest of the gauges seem to work, fuel and RPM. I did not notice if my odometer was going up when driving last.  Any ideas? Speed sensor? Hopefully atleast... Gauge cluster perhaps? Or is that unlikely because the other gauges are working?   Any insight is appreciated. This is a rather new to me car. Lol
