Default HUD Reflection

Occasionally, I have a glaring reflection of the HUD frame on the windshield in or near my line of sight. Anyone else? I am going to try flat black tape on the frame to cut the glare. Any other solutions?

Tape isn't going to work I'm guessing. That is just a reflection when the sun is just right and will go away with the next turn or few minutes.

Yeah. I get that sometimes. I have thought about some black cloth tape or strip of fabric but I can't reach the damn thing! Since it's a momentary thing I guess it's the way it is.

I think the OP issue is the square frame around the HUD screen, as is what I am seeing. Not the Hockey Stick reflection with lighter interior accents.
That said, what did you cover yours with? Looks good.
