IF you are going to use a protectant on your dash use Aerospace 303. It leaves a satin dull finish compared to the gloss many other protectants leave.

You've just ruined your car. For $356.00 I will take the entire car off your hands and live with the glare!

never noticed it on mine either . But now that you have mentioned it , I may start noticing it

I would think keeping the dash clean , and as flat of black as possible , no chemical cleaning or shine , should reduce or eliminate the glare .

Your windshield is supposed to have glare so that you can pick up the HUD. Now, polarized glasses work AWESOME, but you will fade the HUD severely. I keep two pairs of sunglasses in the Vette. They are identical except one pair is polarized. I use the non-polarized most of the time, but will throw on the polarized when the glare really gets on my nerves and I don't need the HUD.
