I just hate the bright ass light when it is on (green noless), but I've never had a car behind me so bright I needed it on. Worst case is the side view mirrors, but if that is too bright I put the window up.

I never really cared, but after I dropped the car, I'm still checking to see if it's on. Those SUV's are really blinding, even with tints and the auto dimming on.

If you're checking for cops in your rearview mirror, I think it's a little too late

the light really isnt bright at all, and with all the damn onstar lights I dont even notice that little green light. By the way, has anyone figured out how to imobilize the onstar so that the onstar people cant listen in.....?

I wish it didnt default to always being on, cuz I have my rear window tinted, so I dont like it being on at night, but its annoyign to keep switching it off everytime you get back in the car. If there is a way to do this, then someone let me know.

My damn parking pass covers up the sensor, so it always dims during the day.... I turn it off. By switching it every day, that wont cause it to fail on me sooner will it? I just had a new one put in not long ago.
