Can a 1992 daytime gauge/instrument panel visibility be improved?

Cannot see the gauges/instrument panel during the day with sunglasses on.

Appreciate your suggestions. Thanks,

Gary

Gary try non polarizing sunglasses. I had to switch when I could not see the HUD on my Mercedes. If still a problem and the black is bleeding out I am going to recommend Batte. Let me know if that solves your problem first. I am betting you are using polarizing lens and seeing the gas pump and ATM cash point is difficult to see as well as they tend to use backlight and black characters. GC. :cheers:

I ordered Batte restoration kit, followed their you tube installation video and results were amazing, great product. Could barely see display and kit brought it back like new.

Batee.com (Brian) also offers a polarization kit for the center LCD that reverses the lighting. So the field is dark and the images are bright.
