Consumer Description
THERE IS SIGNIFICANT DISTORTION OF VISIBILITY THROUGH THE REAR WINDSHIELD DURING BOTH DAY AND NIGHT, MOVING AND STOPPED.THE BIGGEST ISSUE AT NIGHT IS THAT ONE VEHICLE APPEARS MULTIPLIED WITH MULTIPLE SETS OF HEADLIGHTS, MOSTLY UP AND DOWN WITH THE DEFOGGING LINES BUT ALSO IN A WAVY PATTERN BETWEEN DEFOGGER LINES. DURING THE DAYTIME, IT OBSCURES THE EDGES OF VEHICLES WITH THE WAVY PATTERN AND HAS THE SAME HEADLIGHT ISSUE AS NIGHTTIME DRIVING IF IT'S RAINING. THERE IS NO AFTER-MARKET TINT APPLIED AND THERE HAS BEEN NO DAMAGE TO THE WINDSHIELD. IT MAKES CHANGING LANES AT NIGHT OR IN THE RAIN DIFFICULT AND UNSAFE IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD BEHIND ME SINCE THE DISTORTION MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE DISTANCE AND WHICH LANE THEY MAY BE IN.
