I installed this shield on my Garmin nuvi50. Really help with the glare from the bright sun.

Hi Tex can You have the SatNav and music if played coming through the speakers you have at the same time with one giving way to the other as needed or would they fight each other for the right to use the big speakers?

That's a really clever idea. Not cheap for a bit of shaped fabric though. Could be something to try & make Wink

Crash just the music comes thru the speakers. I use the GPS mostly for speed and miles traveled and miles to destination. My Garmin has a big speed readout with the other info on the right side.
Mal I had something similar made with Tape but this works mobetta. That redneck for more better. 
 Thanks Sim.

Hmm I just tend to tilt the pouch towards me and the glare is gone (unless you're in Australia and you're getting sun from underneath ;D

We live in a country where as a rule of thumb glare is not a massive problem but at times still can be & I can only imagine that where Tex is living that is a huge problem. I can see how some people could make something that will do but that is not feasible for all of us I am afraid and at times is better to just buy something that we know is going to work out of the box. I would buy one of these if needed and where I live but sadly the bloody sun is always hiding behind a cloud.

I had a makeshift shade made out of Tape. It looked like it was just that, makeshift. I am of the opinion for a nickle more you can go first class. Very Happy  As much as I have spent on my hobby (bike),twenty bucks is cheap.
