I usually just stop a little ways back from the light, that way I can still see it. If I stop under it like most, then I have to duck... And I'm only 6'0", so I feel sorry for the taller people

If I stopped where I can still see most overhead traffic lights, I'd have to stop about 5 to 10 car lengths away from the stop line. (6'4", most of my height is in my torso)

They work so well in both our HHR's, I thought it would be a good product to carry. I'll post as soon as they come in.

Not in line-of-sight

No, it`s just above my line-of-sight, sorta like bifocals (if you have them, you know) once you get used to them, you only notice them when you need them...
Mrs. B/B, er, Mrs. S/S likes it too, and she`s not tall.

They were. You can still get them too. They are much larger though and require drilling into the dash. That why i like the smaller, suction cup alternative.
