I just returned a pair of Smith Foley sunglasses with polarizing lenses because they make the left side of the Idrive screen unreadable. Which make are you guys using that work with the BMW LCD screen? Thanks.

Serengeti makes some very nice polarized/ photochromatic sunglasses. Look for the 555nm polarized lens. They feel even better than the Maui Jim's imho.

I prefer Maui Jim's, but spend the extra money and get the wired frames. The wireless ones are flimsy and will not last long. Maui Jim does have an EXCELLENT warranty and customer support
