I could not imagine drilling a hole into my dash, and what if I don`t like it or it`s not in a good position, MAN...

PS, Just put the pics on camera, not fuel door, forgot to rename.
Thank you. In the second photo, is that some sort of solid precipitation? I moved from Michigan 3 years ago and am only vaguely familiar with winter now...

Yeah , it`s drizzling slightly, just threw on a light jacket for the pics.
This unit costs about $13.00 . There`s a thread on it out there, Light-in Sight, I can see the light now, something like that. A couple months ago, has ordering link/info. Holla, B/B

Have you ever pulled up to a traffic light and because of the roofline couldn't see the traffic light? This helps you see the light.

Cool

my bad, i thought maybe you were talking about something that changes the light from red to green, like the item at the following link:

http://www.themirt.com/

or this:

http://www.signalsorcerer.com/index.html

what do you think about those?

I think it`s ( the change the light strobe) a good way to get yourself in serious trouble.
I don`t see how you would`ve thought either of those "things" were what this thread was about. Which one is transparent? Held on with a suction cup? Fits on your dash?

Get caught with that and be prepared to go to jail.

They will prosecute you.


Honestly, I'm really not so sure what is so tough about waiting at a light like everyone else.

Here are the pics as promised.

If you look close at the shot from the inside you see a green light in the prism that I couldn't see.

Cool

I wouldn't actually buy one of those, I didn't realize what the thread was about because the low windshield doesn't bother me. It isn't something I have had a problem with. And I don't think those things are strobes, one of them actually does something to the sensors in the road.
