its a issue this time of year driving into the sun, the windshield is so tall Im always holding my hand to shield the sun out of my eyes so the question do you do anything different? sun visors would be nice but anyone using the tinted strips on the top of windshield

The tint brows at the top of the windshield have worked great for me!

Not to tread on someone else's thread but I have the same problem and also a problem with the curved windshield reflecting in such a way that the rear window gets really bad reflections -- not merely light but images reflecting on the back window or from the back to the front windshield. Even the inside rearview mirror becomes useless and even sometimes the outside mirrors. The mirrors don't seem to be that great of quality (mine is a 2015 5600) and working in the woodlot on a bright day is difficult for these old eyes. Does anyone else have a similar problem or is it just me?

the reflecting issue is worse night time when using front and rear floodlight

We have the same problem on our 2017 G Series 5610.
