Is it just me or are the Gauges hard to read during the day with Sunglasses on and only DLRs on. Different story if I put the Headlights on. Have checked the Dimmer Function and it is full on.
Am I missing something.

Yes they would be. Had not thought of that. However do not have the same problem with my XR6 Turbo or my wife's Mazda

The whole point of polarisation is blocking light at particular angles. If the angles are different the gauges are different...

Try adjusting the seat into different positions and you may find it changes things

By any chance you have a dash mat and have covered the sensor in the centre of the dash.
just a thought

Thanks Steve. Think you have hit on the problem. I assume you mean the little raised square angular thing in the middle. Have just been out to the garage tonight to look at the dash mat I purchased from Vince at Mr Mustang in Perth. It looks like a little section will need to be to be trimmed out.
