| Description of the problem | I am the author of consumer complaint: odi case number: 10253724, relating to sun glare on my 2004 solara. About 5,000 miles ago i purchased black felt from a local fabric store and covered the top portion of the dash board, where the sun hits, using double sided tape. It is now like looking through new glass. There is no more glare, even now in the middle of summer. I still believe toyota should make some type of dash cover available, though. |
