Default 2008 Honda Fit Windshield Glare

Anyone experiencing a glare of the coarse dashboard reflecting in the
windshield of 2008 Honda Fit driving toward the sun?

Any solutions to fix it?

Thanks,
Les

Yes, wear polarizing sunglasses. They're great for more than just driving.

Try covering the inside of the windshield with duct tape (make sure you
use the low-gloss kind).

I had this problem with a '91 240sx. The dealer had "armor-all"d the dash
before selling the car, which made the factory non-reflective surface shiny.
At 2:00 PM all you could see in the windshield was the reflection of the
dashboard. The fix was addition of one of those fitted dashboard carpets.

Dark colored dash cover of cloth or lightweight carpet?
