370z multi-function gauge in sunlight

SocalBurt

I kinda noticed it was hard to read on my test drive of the 370 but this thread has me thinking.
What if you put one of those anti glare sheets cut out to fit the gauge area? My Apple MacBook
came with a glossy screen that is completely unreadable in direct sun but then I purchased an
anti glare film and now it is just fine in direct sunlight, well just my 2 cents as far a a temporary fix plus the film is barely noticeable.

Great idea

How does your screen work with polarized sunglasses? I put an antiglare protector on an iphone and could not see it at all with my sunglasses.

This is a good idea, but it might be somewhat difficult. You see, unlike the speedo and tach area, this gauge area isn't behind a flat piece of plastic lens covering. The whole thing is open. So there's no easy way to just cut a circular piece of anti-glare and cover the entire thing. Like you can actually touch the individual LEDs with your finger. It'd be kinda akin to being able to touch the tach needle (if there were no cover).
