dash pad causing blind spot on sunny days

I was sittin in my truck today messing with my turn signal switch, and I looked up out of the front windsheild, and noticed something that may be a problem once I start driving. The sun was beating down on my blue dash pad and it casted a reflection onto my windsheild allowing me to see a reflection of blue, not the "road" in front of me. I hope this does'nt cause a wreck. Has anyone else had this problem, or am I just weird?

You're wierd...Actually,that happens to me when I stick white papers on the dash,which I do often,but I wouldn't exactly call it a blind spot when I'm driving....

my seats are too low for it to matter because i just see my hood there anyway but i know it happens. never heard of a wreck caused by it though.

yeah papers on the dash will do it. your dash may also do it. just look above it not down at it.

Yes , just keep and eye on the yellow lines

, make a blue terry cloth mat for the dash pad ! Or hang your head out the window and let the dog drive.
