at night when you look into the rearview mirror, you see the entire navigation/audio screen on the back window. I find it very annoying and have tried tilting the screen, but nothing works.

Not really but I do find it annoying that the analog clock is basically useless in any type of daylight.

That's funny...I've never noticed this reflection. I presume that you've tried dimming the display?

Re: Do any EXT owners find it annoying that..

My truck came with the back window tinted, but I have tried to dim the nav and it helps a little. I do use the backup camera, but when I am driving and I want to look out the back window, the navigation screen shows up on my window. I also do hate the clock, it's pointless since the nav screen shows the time. I would like to have seen a tray or something to put a cell phone or other stuff, like a wallet.

I notice the reflection too. small distraction. The other thing in an EXT w/ overhead DVD is that I can not see the display lights for distance in rear view mirror while backing up, you have to turn around and look under the DVD unit. Thank goodness for the backup camera.

Re: Do any EXT owners find it annoying that..

I just realized I don't have the Nav screen reflection in my back window at night.
Here's the only reason I can think why I'm not getting the reflection.
Every vehicle I get I find the mirror to be hanging too far down towards the center of the wind shield for my liking.
It blocks my line of sight through the middle of the winshield so, I push the mirror up, to the roof, as far as it will go and readjust it in that spot.
Let us know if that works for you.
