Fan and Temperature Buttons

[CLS3]

Has anyone experienced glare from the sun bouncing off these four buttons and hitting your eyes? It’s blinding. Is there a fix for this?

Have been driving under the Florida sun for six months and have not had any reflection issues with the fan and temperature buttons.

Do you know if the buttons are removable?

Do not know if buttons are removable but with a little patience, a small bottle of Testors model paint and soft hobby brush you can do wonders.

Black electrical tape...now that you don't need it for the airbag light, you have another use for the remaining 50 yards of the stuff . Seriously though, I have not experienced a problem.

Uh, no. But I probably will now. Thanks.

Absolutely experiencing the same thing . . . under certain sun / angle conditions, the reflection off these buttons can be blinding. Less than 300 miles on my car and experienced twice . . . and Pittsburgh has less sunshine than any other city in the US (except Seattle, ha ha !). I will re-post if I find a solution that meets my wife's standards ( . . . YOU'RE going to do WHAT to our expensive new car ! ? ! )

There’s gotta be some matte clear adhesive film that could be applied. First one to post a link wins!

Yes. I get that frequently in sunny San Diego. Of course I also get it in our Nissan Leaf from its center screen so that is not unique to Lucid.

Yeah I noticed this yesterday because I forgot my sunglasses on this road trip. With my polarized Maui Jim’s I’ve never noticed the reflection before.

WSJ's Dan Neil mentions this in his review of the Touring this weekend:

"The Air has a few crazy-making qualities. The lustrous metallic toggles mid-dash, controlling temperature and fan speed, will blind you in bright sunlight."

Except for a few other nits, he raved about the car.
