Here's a mod I stumbled upon when I was frequenting the mini forums (I was thinking of getting a mini cooper clubman).

It's a little plastic lens that you attach to the inside top of your windshield with just water.

I can now see the traffic light when I'm first in line and the top is up without having to bend forward and look up.

It's kind of a silly little thing but it has made daily driving the S2000 easier.

 

Very neat product; thanks for posting about it. I'm intrigued.

I'm curious, though - has yours caused glare in your line of sight from the sun being in that particular position (or even street lights or any other strong light source)?

 

Pretty cool.
I might have to give it a try.

 

I don't stop for lights.

 

 

I haven't noticed any glare from it, it's pretty small and I installed it up at the top of the windshield.

The only downsides I've noticed so far is that it looks a little funny on the windshield and that the image of the traffic light is rather small so I have to look directly at the lens rather than just use my peripheral vision.

 

Yet another reason the top is always down. Neat product though.

 

Gotcha. Thanks!
