I just purchased 2005 F-150 supercab lariat 4x4 with tan dash inserts on either side of gray/black center dash insert. I get a terrible relfection of the dash in the windshield in almost every type of lighting condition. I drove the truck with my dark glasses on and never noticed this until I got it home.
This is the first vehicle in my life (age 60) I have ever experienced with this problem. Any idea what I can do? Can I return the truck to the dealer? A new windshield? Dash cover? Help! this has really ruined this truck for me.
Welcome to FTE, geary18. I also have a Lariat with the tan interior but I am not experiencing the sensitivity to the dash reflection as you are. Returning the truck seems doubtful, and a new windshield would do nothing toward this, but a dash cover would be my bet for eliminating this problem for you and it would protect the dash at the same time. Check with some of the FTE sponsors to find what's available. Good luck!
I had the same glare issues with my 04 fx4 and got a black dashcover that stopped it. The darker the dashcover the less glare you will see. Its the best answer to this.
