Made in the shade!
There had been some talk about having more tinting at the top of the windshield to help block afternoon sun. Also, some people, like me with my Midwestern complection, don’t like to have the sun bearing down from above. I solved both these issues with some 50/50 see through vinyl that sign shops use to print on and apply over vehicle windows. In my case, I had some printed with a grey color and installed it on the inside of the windshield and underside of the roof. I didn’t want to completely block out the roof but this makes it much more comfortable for me to drive on a sunny day. And it also improves the screen visibility of my dash/backup camera. It was not easy to install this on the concave surface of the roof without a few wrinkles but I’m happy with the results. I’ll keep you posted as to how well this holds up.
