I travel up to 9.4K and the sun at the altitude is brutal and will bake a cars inside quickly

I've had it for about 4 months and no issues thus far. Of course it doesn't cut quite as much heat as the darkened sides/back, but it does make a difference. I see zero optical interference, until I put on polarized sunglasses. Depending on the angle of the sun, I tend to get some very minor color discoloration banding (purple). Not distracting though, I usually don't see it after a few minutes. Other than that, zero distortion.
