jasoneg Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 I have an 08 and there is definitely a glare. There is no disputing it. Armor all makes it a little worse but it doesn't matter. I haven't used armor all in years, but depending on the time of day, direction your driving and amount of sunshine will depend how much glare you will get. Sunglasses help. I usually pray for a cloud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWRBB Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 We have a 2010, glare sucks. Polarized shades or not. I'm 6'3, wife is 5'6, we both notice it. Just the nature of the beast. At least the dash isn't ugly as sin like the 11-14s are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Is anyone else having trouble with glare from the dash? I get a glare and reflection of the dash on the winshield? If so what have you tried on the dash to help? Thanks Lenny I happened to remember this post while we were on a day trip this last Saturday and made a special point to look for glare. Have a 2009 MKZ and have to say, I have no glare no matter what angle the sun took to the car. Do see a weak reflection of the top of the instrument cluster, but it's not really objectionable. Don't know what difference there is between the Edge and MKX; or the 09 and the 08 or 07, but they seem to have gotten it right in the 09.

omar302 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 @enigma-2 Do you have Polarized sunglasses? They will reduce a lot of the sun's glare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) I wear American Optical Pilot Aviator Sunglasses (non-polarized glass version). Was thinking, the instrument cover is a textured, matt finish, might make a difference if one were to use conditioner and turn it shinny. Not certain as to what my detailer uses, but it seems to last and not shinny. Edited October 18, 2016 by enigma-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Your latitude and time of year also makes a big difference relative to the sun's angle on the dashboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
