Everything I have and like is polarized it’s pretty irritating as it renders the HUD useless. What are you guys/gals using?

Hi,
All my sunglasses are Oakley and they work fine with the HUD.
Cheers

My Oakley's are polarized and block the HUD.

That said, I find the HUD gets more in the way than anything so I'm not terribly upset.

I really wanted this feature and in practice I don't use it all that much.

Yeah I’m not terribly upset either was just hoping to find some alternative glasses. I found some Costa Del Mar Reefton sunglasses that I really liked. They are polarized but I still bought them.

I will keep my eyes out for some non polarized glasses someday.

I find the M HUD most distracting and just in the way visually. I keep the other one turned on and as low as possible but still in view.

Yep when I'm outside I wear polarized sunglasses but leave a pair of non polarized Ray-Bans in the car to see the HUD.

Prizm blocks out the HUD as well.

Just tint the front windshield. Done.

What % tint? Taking ours in tomorrow because that windshield just bakes the car.

It's either 80 or 70 that is considered legal. 👍
