There's ya problem - listening to Galaxy FM 105.6 is the killer :rolleyes:

Sorry mate, I'm lost for words now. I don't have this problem and as bumpkin inferred, as no other member has reported/commented on it, it could be down to personal perception or alien invasion. I guess Steven Hawking should shut the F**K up and admit aliens are invading our stereo setups.





Have you cleaned the glass as I asked?

I have an idea that an appropriate resistance LDR in series with the dimmer switch might be an elegant soultion, but I'm too tired to think about it at the moment.  I need to pop the dimmer pot out an measure the range of reistance sometime.

Re bumpkin's posting above.

Is your seat on its lowest setting? 
If so, raise it to mid hight or higher and see if that helps.

you may have to move the seat forward if pedal postion has moved

Ok I have an update on this guys. As I realised the TA on my radio didn't work I thought i'd try to kill two birds with one stone. I went to the dealers and told them about both problems and was informed I'd need a new radio to fix the TA. I thought great maybe they can reposition the radio at the same time. To cut a long story short they could only move it down a little but if I sit in the right position the reflection is much less of a problem than before  :). However, the TA still doesn't work and the volume/channel knobs are a bit harder to use as they are sunk back. I don't mind this though as I can use the steering controls anyway. The main issue is much better now so i'm not going to take it back. Thanks for your previous suggestions guys, we can lay this topic to rest for the time being.

 :idea: Idea  :idea:

Cut a square piece of paper the size of the screen.

Attach the top edge above the screen - tape or blue tac - and allow to cover screen
