guessing the film is just polarised to stop the refraction within the glass on the reflection. try turning it through either 90 or 180 see if it improves the outside look polarised is usually planar

you can get free ones which work off your phone screen, of course you need to have the phone flat by the windowHi there
OK this is a crap video, its hard to hold a phone in front of your eyes so you see what I say and well driving, particular in cold wet weather lol, still I tried:
So with the film it is super sharp and clear, also rather bright, that is on auto and in dimmer setting. So its a bit distracting at first though you get used to. Though I feel even with the slightly ghosted image its better without the film as its just more transparent/dimmer.
I did as Manders suggested and taped over everything un-necessary which really cleans it up well, you could also dim it by using clear tape and then a black marker or just remove the film from windscreen.
For ÂŁ20 its a great buy, works well, revs are a bit laggy on our ECU it seems, Ford clearly guy our ECU a slow CPU, it seems fine on the BMW, super smooth.

or if you want rid of the film this does the job but is ÂŁ50
Nano Technology so no need of any film, and James T Kirk has one on the Enterprise

Even in daylight was rather bright on auto, so defaulted it to the dimmer setting:
When driving you do not see the box or anything, held phone rather high and closer to get a better video.

Not yet, in the dark I could no longer see it in the windscreen.Nice one, did you see what [MENTION=26439]hinch[/MENTION] said about the 'piece of paper' ;)
Yeha I getcha, still need to watch these videos to see it - glad the tape worked. if it's too bright, you could always tint it (or tape with a sharpie as you said lol)... Equally, for those interested, tape with a sharpie can make the image white/red/whatever colour sharpie u have ;)!Not yet, in the dark I could no longer see it in the windscreen.
To be honest I think I am going to remove the film anyway, it kind of makes the image to sharp/bold, a HUD is supposed to be a ghost type image, so you see it but you never focus on it if you get my drift.
your one is a great price, but not really sure I need it to be honestMine is listed as nano technology, it still has a slight ghost without film but is not so bad, I will probably ditch the film because it looks pants from outside and driving at night it is bright with the film.
I got it not because I needed it, just because I wanted it and love gadgets and geeky stuff.your one is a great price, but not really sure I need it to be honest
I have a voice that tells me if i am going over the speed limit on the free Tom Tom cameras which also gives me the Speed Cameras which the Sat Nav dont.
