Can you see the display during the daytime with sunlight? Also, can I use a SONY wiring harness that is already installed in my car for this one?

Yes you can see it in the day light. I'm not sure if you will be able to use the old harness. I had to modify my old one slightly. By I got my old harness to work with slight modifications.

I have one in my convertible and it looks really good in the sun if you ask me!

Visibility can vary depending on the conditions and vehicle but are displayed through the unit. If you have an existing after market stereo, the vehicle harness can be used again.

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.

The pull-out view finder is small and not much shielding from the sun. Can try adding a rubber eye cup. Google in YT and check out how it looks to you.

Yes, you can see the screen in bright sun light pretty good - just tried it for you today.

This monitor has a matte finish on the screen, so the glare is minimal, even in very bright conditions. However, as with all monitors, it's best to not have a bright light source directly behind it, particularly the sun. I use this in a room that gets really bright afternoon sun, and the screen shows just fine. The wall on which this monitor is located is perpendicular to the wall with the window, so the sun does not actually hit the screen. For your use, this monitor will be more than sufficient.

No..the display will be on the screen all the time.....it will become brighter when the unit is turned on.....

I can't recall ever being in a situation where bright sunlight made it difficult to see the display. I'm sure it could happen, but so far, I'm very happy with it.

First of all the screen is white with a black trim. Your question has more to do with your projectors brightness than the screen. You need a very high amount of lumens to make it work in the daytime.

Dan:I am not sure if I understand your question. can the light be dimmed?If you mean the display, if I recall, the display automatically dims for evening driving.Did this answer your question?Tom

I used mine in a daylight room and it worked fine. I was showing color and black and white photos. Tom

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

No, and that's why I got it. I had to replace my car's original radio/CD player, and could ONLY see its display in the dark, so I needed something I could see when the sun streams into the car. I often laugh at myself, having too "car clock" right next to each other, but I need to know what time it is as I travel, in dark or light, so this solution works for me.

I have used it outside in bright sunlight, with only the sun shade and it is very clear. I am very happy with this monitor.

Yes, the display itself is rather bright. The projected image on the windshield can be a little hard to see, without the film, only when heading directly into the sun. I thought the film might be distracting, but if you put it in the lower part of the windshield, below the direct line of sight, you shouldn't really notice it and it does make the numbers easier to read on a bright day

I really wouldn't recommend this radio... you can barely see any off the display even in low sunlight.... it also isnt very loud there is very little output from this radio its impossible to set the date and time... I regret not getting a basic radio for my car... but it will fit with the right installation kit im sure

Hello Jeremie,We guarantee it does not have any cracks or bad display areas ie shadows or ghosts. So it should be pretty much like a new one. The only connector is the one shown in the picture which is the main feed from the display. There are no other cables or harnesses supplied.Sincerely,Jay OwnerCompuMatter

The screen is bright but in direct sunlight on a very sunny day it will be hard to see. To solve that problem you can purchase a Hoodmam to place over the screen the screen so it can be viewed.
