Does the reflective "H" on the steering wheel ever blind you?

This has happened to me a few times. If the sun is behind me at just the right angle, it will come in through either the sunroof or the upper part of the driver side windows and reflect off the reflective part of the "H" in the steering wheel right in my eyes. Today I was driving to the store and I had to put my hand over the H to block the light. This ever happen to anyone else? Can I remove the H or something?

Yes it bugs the heck out of me... I usually cover it with my hand or something. I don't know if it comes off, but if it did, you'd be left with an ugly glue spot behind it. Maybe just carry around a post it note to cover it up when it gets bad.

The only thing that gets on my nerves is the reflection of the dashboard into the windshield. And when I look out the rear window and I can see my speakers. Need to get my windows tinted...
