Disgracefully Old Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I bet that topic title got some of you going, thinking what this then? Driving Topless ! Anyway. The last time I had a convertible was a Triumph Stag. Gorgeous car, and driving this TT brings back fond memories. However, during the beautiful weather we had last year I discovered something. Driving with the roof down caused an issue with visibility during the bright sunshine in that it got behind the sunglasses at the top and made you end up squinting. This can of course be alleviated by wearing a baseball cap because the peak stops the sun getting behind the top of the glasses. But have any of you found a way around this so you don't have to wear the cap? I appreciate it may seem a silly point to some, but I surely can't be the only one to experience this? Thanks for any tips or info in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also - lighten up, why don't you?🙄 I was hoping that my initial thread explained everything quite clearly? I started this thread because I didn't think I would be the only one suffering from this, and from reading articles around on the web it seems it's an issue a lot suffer from. However it's nice to know there is an alternative to wearing a baseball cap or peaked cap if you don't want to. Thats why I started this thread. The image above is an idea. I think I will order an insert, but I will be cutting away the bottom and sides because I want to maintain my preipheral vision, and it's also not needed below either. It may be a bit pricey, but I only need one and at least it solves the problem, and for the amount of time each year that this would be an issue it's a trade off. However this encased solution may also be a great fix for people with hay fever that suffer from runny eyes all the time too as an added bonus.
