Looking for a low-glare cover for the top of the instrument 'binnacle' with a cut-out for the heads up display (HUD) aperture. Not for the entire dash, only the driver's side.

Compared to my IS250, I'm seeing a bit of glare/reflection, especially around the dash opening for the HUD. I'm thinking some sort of DIY black felt cover.

Any ideas?

Just out of curiosity - do you have window tint? I tinted my windows with a ceramic-based product for the first time on my ES and can honestly say that I haven't notice any reflections as I do/did in my other vehicles. Wonder if anyone else that has window tint (vs. not) has any feedback on reflections.

I haven’t noticed any reflections on our ES, but we also had it tinted before spending any time behind the wheel. Our NX picked up terrible reflections after tinting it. The door panel sills reflect when looking out the rear view mirrors. Too bad they included a chrome strip across the top of the door panel. Anyway, I haven’t noticed it on the ES.

edit: actually just drove the NX and it is the dash vent and the dash itself that is in the reflection when looking at the rear view mirror. I was mistaken about the chrome strip.

No window tint. While at Autozone yesterday, I saw some black carpet matting material that you can cut for finishing DIY subwoofer enclosures and the like. Still thinking on what to do. Again, it's not a terrible reflection, just a little more noticeable than with my IS250.
