Windshield Glare/reflection?

Not really a Cobalt problem I think?(I never experienced this..)

But in my gurl's 07 Civic, on a sunny or...not so sunny day, her dash(black) is always reflecting on to the windshield and it's very annoying/distracting.. I always thought it was maybe the angle of the dash or maybe the finish on the dash, but either way.. that **** needs to stop

Anybody know what I'm talkin about?? This **** goes all the way up the windshield an whenever I drive her car, I find myself movin my head around to try to see past it >.<

Any fix aside from redoin the whole thing matte black?

I've never seen an anti glare spray for windshields. Keeping the windsheild clean or not using interior shine should help if you haven't already done those things. Otherwise I would just call it a design flaw.

car windows are naturally "tinted" at 70%. and tinting the windshield makes the glare much worse.
