+1, this plus the rainbow effect caused by my polarized glasses in my front windows has caused me to ditch the polarized lenses.

You guys weren't kidding, the HUD does get very bright in daylight.

I figured out the NCS error (daten files too new, go figure) and coded the RLS. Even with a non-HUD windshield I see it brilliantly in bright sun

Windshield comes in tomorrow, so this retrofit is complete!
