Reflective glare off dashboard

Help. Just bought a new S60 and the glare off the dashboard creates a kind of double vision through windshield on sunny days. The only thing that helps seems to be putting black fabric accoss the top on the dashboard-but this is a ridiculous fix. Any ideas? Anyone else have this problem?

Reflective glare off dashboard

Does Volvo acknowledge the problem of reflection off the dash in the windshield? I think it's a safety hazard.

Armor All seems to "burn off" over time. The P.O. had my car detailed just before I bought it and they did a real number with that stuff. Within a couple of months it started to get better. Now I just use cleaner...never the shiny protectant stuff.

"Anyone else have this problem?"

Yes. Every time I have Armor-Alled the dash in any car I've owned. A slight coating of dust will take care of it, and maybe a "glare free" window cleaner for the windshield.

What about these dash board covers? Anyone try them?
