Default I can't see...

I posted this once already, but was unable to view the thread for some reason.

2002 Accord EX Coupe

The reflection of the dashboard on the inside of the windshield is very distracting during almost all daylight driving.

Does anyone know of a low cost, easily applied solution to this problem?

Short of tearing out the dashboard and painting it flat black, I don't know what to do.

I never had a car that had such bad dash reflection as this...

has it been recently armor-all'd? I can't think of any other reason it would be extremely reflective.

One of the regulars posted a spray for him.... I think it was Rick, the detailing god.

You can go to the local hobby/crafts store and buy some felt; cut it to shape and lay it over the dash.

there are custom made anti glare mats available. ButI don't know who sells them, I've seen them in big rigs.

you can usually just order a dash carpet. i got one for my 635 as the dash has a tendency to crack in excessive direct heat.

There's no Armor All on the dash. I was hoping for something that will not look like trash on the dash. But a piece of felt is probably the route I'll have to take...

Does anyone else seem to have this problem with this particular model?

Never had the problem... I've been told to much armor all on the dash could ruin it..

Get a custom dash mat.. really cheap.
