Bfg Posted November 7, 2024 Report Share Posted November 7, 2024 Dear Marjorie Proops., I'm not grizzling, but I'm suffering from night time glare in my car's mirrors. Is there any hope ? Katie the TR is so low that the LED lights of modern day Chelsea tractors / armoured kiddie-run vehicles and bumper-kissing white vans are fading the car's carpets. I have tried mirroring the light back, using my God-given bald patch, and have even polished that with Brylcreem, but I suspect ..because its surface is convex and just a little lumpy - the reflection is dissipated. Youthful optician advises I have symptoms of cataracts, but hardly anything at all and certainly not worthy of an operation at this conjuncture. I don't have no problem with warmer coloured headlamp glare, but struggle to avoid the whiter or bluer glare of LED's ..especially on those ever more frequent occasions - when my car is silhouetted against the town's road-signs or the hedgerows along country lanes. Yellow night-driving glasses barely help at all, and of course the car's wing mirrors are not electric, whereby I might easily tilt them to one side. My being blinded by the glare reflected through side and interior mirrors places pedestrian and cyclists road users in jeopardy, and as a consequence I'm refraining from using the TR at night. I wonder if there are effective and yet cost effective anti-glare filters, perhaps stick on, which I might use to cover the wing mirrors at night.? Thank you for your thoughts, Mr Frumpy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
