At a roundabout near brands hatch LV13 white st with black roof. Looked good.

Also has anyone else had a problem with reflection onto the dash board, going through country lanes this afternoon we were also driving blind.

Looking to try and get a Matt black mat to cover but guess you have to be careful not to over heat or block any vents. Suggestions welcome.

It was a bit of an issue in my mk7, only in strong sunlight but sometimes it could be blinding.

We spoke to the chat at Goodwood and he had noticed it, again tonight on motorway all we could see was the reflection of dash in windscreen.

Chat also didn't know what the black dome is either.

Yeah the dome on the dash is a sensor for the EATC, pretty sure it's mentioned in the manual somewhere... I did read about it when I got mine but can't remember where.

The dome on the dash is there to pick up DAB signals, as if it went through the normal arial then the signal stength would vary whilst on the move and would constantly drop in and out

Thanks for that. Although have noticed freezes.

Only gripe now is the reflection. Emailed a total wrapping company for assistance.
