Once again behind the wheel of the Eclipse GT, I noticed something minor, but annoying that I didn't notice a few nights ago. In the harsh sunlight, the indicators on the climate control knobs are essentialy invisible. Small, clear lines (that light up at night) on the edges of the knobs serve to indicate where you're at as far as temp selection, fan speed and mode. In order to see what the status was at a glance, I would flick the exterior lights on for a moment. As the photos show, at night it's easy to see what the settings are, but during the day it's trial and error.
On a different note, literally, I love the Rockford Fosgate audio system. I already raved about the intuitive remote controls, now I'm talking about how it performs...
