My screen might as well be off when I have my polarized sunglasses on.

The worst combination is polarized sunglasses
Same here.My screen might as well be off when I have my polarized sunglasses on.
Both of my sunglasses's polarization lines up with "something" on the Pioneer screen and it appears very dim to black. But if I tilt my head I can see a bright screen unless I'm dealing with glare from the passenger side.With my alpine i can see it with polarized sun glasses and watch it fade out if i tilt my head. Even a little tilt it really changes a lot. That generally isn't my issue as much as glare
In my LX450, I have replaced all four door speakers and the factory subwoofer with a Tang brand (from ebay in 2011) that sounds a lot better, but still doesn't make a ton of sound being only 4". Recently, I installed a 6" bazooka tube in the "wing" area of my drawer system.Thanks everyone this thread is incredibly helpful; I just picked up an incredibly well kept 97 LX450 and I am looking to attack the same project soon. @jomichael I do like your install. Couple questions for the group related to this:
1. Any thoughts on replacing everything but the subwoofer and just leaving the OEM sub in there with the new head unit and door speakers? My cones are blown out on 3/4 door speakers but I think the sub is fine.
2. I can fix a lot of things but I do not trust myself with anything electrical after a prior debacle with an F150. I also do not trust most of the "experts" at car audio shops, and I think might be safer to let my local Land Cruiser repair guy install the stuff for me. If anyone has any suggestions on what to look for or pitfalls with knowing whether an audio installer knows what they are doing with an LC/LX, I am all ears.
I use that a lot!!! Just silly they couldn’t dim it 50% more!!There's a button you can press and hold that completely blacks out the screen v which is good at night.
Screen reactivates with a touch.
Works with Maui Jim lenses. At least mine which are RX.Both of my sunglasses's polarization lines up with "something" on the Pioneer screen and it appears very dim to black. But if I tilt my head I can see a bright screen unless I'm dealing with glare from the passenger side.
