Hi All

I believe you can get a surround for a tt300 to stop the glare from the sun
can any one help with info?

Thankyou

Try Googling for it. Trouble is, the 300 is now "old" - there have been two ranges of newer models and I can't see any visors from the firm who used to do them - Drumma.

I think you'll probably have to settle for Fleabay! Take care to get the right one, though (not for 510/710/910 which are the current visor models).

The other one to look at is the Glare Stomper 316 is listed for the Go-300, I have used these before on a number of devices and like the way they offer additional screen protection when the device is not in use.

The fabric that forms the Glare Stomper body folds in across the screen - a neat idea and quite effective in use - Mike

What bugs me is that TT (and presumably other manufacturers) tell you not to have the device in the sunshine heat. Where do we all mount them (using the TT provided mount)? On the windscreen, which is very often the sunniest, hottest place in the vehicle. Yet as far as I know, nobody sells a heat repelling visor - I did contact one visor seller about it without result - they just did the glare. All it needs is an all-over heat reflecting visor with an air gap between it and the device. If I did DIY with screwdrivers and stuff, I could make one myself. But I don't, so I can't. Crying or Very sad And my devices steam!! Especially since they're all finished in heat absorbent black!! Rolling Eyes When I take the 720 off the mount and pop it conveniently in my shirt pocket, it warms the cockles of my heart!
