Before I fabricate one I wonder if there is a ready made sun shield for my SDS200 mounted atop my dash. The display gets bleached out in direct sunlight. (The photo was taken at night.) (Using a BuiltRight Industries mounting bracket for my 2021 Ford F-150 Lariat. It mounts in the indented glove tray seamlessly.)

From what I've heard, there's a button that changes the screen to black and white which should make it visible in the sun.
It works better to see it with the black and white mode... But still can be tough to see it at times with respect to how the sunlight hits it...
With my thanks, no. I prefer the multi-colored display. I don't fault the display… even the display that came with the truck has issues with sun glare from time to time. I made a shield out of heavy paper stock that did the trick temporarily and was just exploring other possibilities.
Something like this might work... It could be trimmed to size possibly... You would have to see witch way to rotate it first

Wow! Going high tech…it’s not what I was fishing for but it is interesting. I’m just looking for a pre-fabricated sun visor to fit.
LOL. I learned my lesson with my RS Pro 2042. The sun melted the case within 30 minutes of Houston summer sunlight. I never did that again.
