Glare on HU

I just recently installed a CDA-9835 on my IX and I'm getting pretty bad glare issues during the day. Is anyone else getting the same issue? At night on the other hand, It looks sweet, but during the day its hard to make out what it says.

Any fix?

common problem......as far as a fix, best bet is to get the radio relocation kit from so its not so high on the dash.

Sounds good, is it possible to move a empty din pocket in that area to still have a storage area?

Is the relocation difficult? Who makes the kit?

To reduce glare and reflection - like on nav screens, head units, etc I get a sheet of "anti-glare" film meant for computer monitors and usually just cut it to size. It's fairly cheap like $20 dollars if I remember correct and is usually easy to apply.

Hope it helps!
