I recently added a Chevy HHR to the "fleet" as my daily driver (the Crossfire is the weekend cruiser), and found that I had the same problem in that car as I do with the Crossfire - to get the pedals to feel comfortable, I must have the seat as far back as it will go in both cars, and this makes the view out the windshield a bit limited at the top. I have to duck down to see the traffic lights. It's a pain in the... well, neck. I'm sure a lot of you taller drivers have this problem, and perhaps not just with the Crossfire.

While cruising the HHR forums, I found mention of this handy little item, the Light-in-Site prism (yes, it's a Mini Cooper website). It's a little oblong triangular-ish piece of plastic prism that sticks to your upper winshield (from the inside) that "bends" the light, allowing you to see things above of your normal line of sight.



They were given a thumbs-up on that forum, so I bought two, one for the HHR and one to try in the Crossfire. I should have them in a week or so, and will post how effective they are after I get them installed.

They also talked about an old-school little triangular bit of plastic with a suction-cup mount, but that didn't sound too attractive to me...
