Crystalline 70 on my windshield - glare is annoying af

Title

I've driven with it for a couple weeks and it still bugs me every time I pull out of the garage. Did I pick the wrong darkness or is this just what windshield tint does?

The dash area under the windshield is black btw

Spica 3 vs Omni

After considering I'll be using this with an android tablet it seems uneekor is out

So I'm back to waiting for the Omni or going with the spica 3

No simulator now but possibly in the future. For now I want ready ability to use an android tablet and no subscription for range metrics and impact replay

Thoughts on the spica or should I wait for the Omni?

Fyi. I'm limited to camera based systems

Uneekor eye mini?

Talk me out of it.

May or may not eventually connect to a full sim but just using with a cage for now. It'll be my first launch monitor so here's my particular list of wants other than basic metrics:

  • Clubhead impact
  • Impact replay
  • Subscription free

Is there a better option? I know of the square omni but doesn't seem to have an actual delivery date

first time cage/net?

i'm guessing a lot of folks didn't just build a room around a sim from the get go. probably got a simple net and camera based monitor to see if it was gonna fit into your life or not.

yeah, i'm there. setting the monitor aside for now, what's a decent cage i can start with to start in the backyard? i'm know uv and weather is tough on nets but that's the space i've got now. are they all kinda the same, or is there a 'good' one i need to look at?

thoughts on llumar f1 stratos?

will be on the front 2, maybe windshield and pano sunroof, of a 23 x5

i'm looking to go 50 on the fronts and 70 if i do the windshield

i've had all sorts of tint over the years, but don't think i've had llumar before. thoughts on the stratos line and how it compares to 3m crystalline?

specifically i'm looking for ir rejection and visual clarity

Only room with a high ceiling is 12'2" x 12'10"

Is that too tight?

Swapping 21s for 20s

Apt thermostat/boiler control

I have the thermostat pictured, ignore the display and lights, I can't get them captured properly in a photo. What's on currently is the in-operation light and room temp says 24

My difficulty is that I want hot water​ for the bathroom, kitchen, etc but if this thing is running it seems to keep warming the home too

I thought the room temp dial is what controls the floor heating but even with it turned all the way down it's still warming up the floor.

Quick Google search for the manual just brings up Korean and Cyrillic...?

Downsize Wheels on m sport package?

Basically the title. I have a 2023 with m sport staggered 21-in wheels. Has anyone​ got a winter set of wheels to replace the staggered 21s? If so I'm guessing your winters are on 20-in rims, I'd like to know if they clear the calipers

Alternatively, does the m sport package use bigger brake calipers or just paint them?

Are these termites?

Found these in our bathroom. Also killed about a dozen or so surrounding the ceiling lights before I thought to take pictures. Seem to be two sizes the larger are about a quarter inch long, maybe less. The smaller ones you see around the drain​are super small. I don't see in between sizes so I fear I have two different infestations going.

I'm afraid that my suspicion is correct, but please tell me something else

location is Southern California
