If I turn my head then the HUD image will go blank.
That's the best way to test if you have polarized or not. If it goes blank, they're polarized...

(Just to clarify the test, you need to "tilt" your head, not turn it -- just make your ear touch your shoulder...that should do it.)

My Ride: 2007 Titanium Gray 550i, with sport, nav, HUD, Logic7, sat radio, cold weather, rear side airbags, rear seat heaters, and it goes like a bat outta hell!

I have a couple pair of Oakley polarized glasses.....when I first got my 550 with HUD, the display came and went....so I just bought a pair of regular Oakleys (non-polarized) for driving, and the difference is....well..night and day...

I can't quite touch my ear to my shoulder, but I can touch my nose with my tongue......but I don't know how that relates to sunglasses or HUD!!
