Carpokes

I know a lot of 718 owners have complained about the Sports Chrono gauge reflecting on the windshield and being a distraction, especially at night. How about a simple cover that you can put on and take off as needed?

Tom - cool stuff!

That would work well on my 718 Spyder.

What other cool gizmos have I missed?

I have the whole covers (top) and I just bought the license plate screwless attachment. That’s a darn nice piece of engineering.

I like it, especially for the Carpokes shout out.

Have you been for an eye exam and had dilation? I fiddled with little piece of the curled dark sun shield they give you to put over your glasses. It is dark but also reflective. Cut just right it fits over the upper lip of the chrono like an accountant's or card dealer's eye shade. Just enough to block the chrono from projecting to the windshield but keeping it fully visible. Studebaker did that on their windshield. I know a pic is needed, but actually my version doesn't look that good! I will pilfer a couple more from the clinic and try again.

I forgot about this. Is the “lens cover” ready for primetime?

I didn't get much reaction to it originally, but could always order some suction cups and fire up the printer if there enough folks who want them...

Is it the bezel or the glass of the gauge that people complain about?
