Before I purchase, would like to know from previous purchasers how satisfied they are with the HUD in daylight hours. Thank you.

It works well in all lights for me and I don't even use the darker reflection strip provided, although I therefore get a double reflection. Delighted with it!!

The vehicle that I have the HUD installed in is only driven during daytime, and I have no problem viewing the display.

Display in daylight is excellent. It's a good unit. My only problem was security with unit and exposed cable to plug-in. But, it works great, right out of the box.

Your very welcome! Glad I could help. You can not beat the quality and price! I have HID's and they help spotting dear in early morning drive to work.

Thanks for the information as I appreciate it. It still looks like a pretty good deal but the updated maps would have closed the deal for me.

We actually added a dusk to dawn sensor to ours and it has worked fine for about 4 years now. There is a small amount of surface rust that can be fixed with a quick coat of Rustloeum. We're in Ohio where the weather isn't always the best.

It's uses newer LED technology, instead of 8 LEDS it uses 2 LEDS to stream down a small tube to illuminate. The DayLight 8 kit is actually wider than the daylight guide. Also the daylight guide are only sold outside of the US thus imported, thus higher price. Once they are sold here, I'm sure the prices will go down. Newer vehicles with LED DRL are using this technology versus individual LEDS spread out. I don't know if it's better but I think it looks cooler. Wish it came as wide as the DayLight8.

The light isn't a problem for me, although I don't game in the dark, I still I don't think it would be problem. It is very responsive; key binding the 2 side buttons are game specific; and I've never had any double click issues. Worth every penny. Plus when surfing the web side buttons fwd & back page.

My unit gets used daily and is working well. I set it up on installation and have no need to make adjustments however I vaguely recall manually selecting "toggling" through various options. I do not recall the option to input specific horizontal / vertical adjustments. There were many preset options and I eventually found the perfect resolution for my 50" display.

Truthfully, have not noticed if it does, but would like to hear from others if the experience has been different. As to their effectiveness during the day and night time, no problem during daylight, but at night time a strong source of lighting is needed for the ones that I have if you want to be able to see anything. There may have been an improvement (?) after the ones that I purchased.

Yes - I have found it depends on the color you choose. Overall I have found a few color combinations that allow me to see the display in daylight. I love this unit! It has everything and is well designed. My only complaint is the songs from radio are not displayed (title/artist)

I would argue that the glare is a non issue altogether. I really think people who complain about glare are simply LCD/LED fanboys. My unit is in a sun-drenched room with wrap-around ceiling to floor windows and I've never had an issue with glare. I do need to close the blinds in the day, but that's the tradeoff for a superior picture from a display that doesn't double as a neon flashlight. So in sum, screen brightness can be an issue, but for me that's easily resolved with the blinds. Glare has never been an issue for me. I continue to stand by my initial statement that this is the finest screen I've ever viewed when broken in and calibrated properly. I would argue that the glare is a non issue altogether.

I have the same issue so I emailed the seller asking him about the lifetime map updates that I couldn't find the website. He responded back with the unit already had the newest map installed and he would send me the link when a new update comes out.

Have you reloads changed any would be the most obvious questions. I try to chronograph on cloudy days or in the shade beside a side of a building. Something that is solid shade. I just don't trust sunny days. Unlike others I don't trust sunny days.

It works great. They have 4 preset items for different rooms or adjust backlight, brightness and contrast Independant. I actually have floor to ceiling windows behind it that face the sun and the other room widows with sun in front. Both work great.

Steven, link me to a 2D scrolling shooter, and I'll snap a picture of this monitor at 90 rotation. Right now just browsing the web I can see a slight haze on the screen. If I look at it at different angles the screen gets dark, but head on it looks nice just not as bright.

No. It's difficult to see it on daylight. Anyhow as the route to take is orange in color, you can see where you need to go while riding Overall I consider it very important piece of equipment to ride and for sure excellent cost- benefit device. I can't afford and I consider ridiculous the price of a Garmin Zumo, which doesn't guarantee clear reading neither.

I don't believe this unit is "too" bright. There are options to change the color, both on the radio display and GPS. I have my GPS setting on night always. Not bright at all. But this unit isn't without it's glitches. I've had experiences now more than a couples of times where the screen freezes or not turn on at all. I had to turn off the car and it reset. Granted I am no expert, I do not know if it's my car's electrical system or the unit itself. Good luck with your shopping.
