Annoying visibility problem

Aren't your dash lights working?

I've found that I have a problem seeing the speedometer in unfavorable light. If I am driving in the sun or bright conditions, often the speedometer is in relative darkness and I cannot tell how fast I'm going.

I tried a number of solutions, but found a small LED directional flashlight, and attached it with some Velcro to the underside of the plastic shield over the speedometer and tach. This stays put, activates easily, and gives me the light I need to see the dash when I'm driving into the sun. Not a life changing mod, but a good $2 fix for an annoying issue!

I just watch for the copcar8.gif and then slow down a little.

I wear a 3/4 helmet with a dark tint face shield and tinted glasses and never have had that problem (73,000+ miles).

Speedometer? I never look at that.

What is this thing to which you refer ... "speedometer"?

It's the gauge on the leftt above your steering wheel. It's purpose is to display the speed at which you are travelling. Totally worthless because it LIES everywhere I go!

I only use the Speedometer on the radios split screen...

Day or night sun or not i can't see the pod speedometer...And or the tach........
