Folks,
I have had my "lightinsight" gadget in place for well over a year now - I won't drive anywhere without it. I bought a second as a "spare" and so far I have not needed it. The folks at the car wash haven't hurt it - Once or twice it collected a bit of dust and got dull, so I just peeled it off and washed it with in the sink like a dirty dish using a couple of drops of liquid dish soap and a some slight hand pressure much like I clean my glasses. Re-apply with a little water and wait a day for the haze to dissappear and it's back to new and clear again.
It should be useful for folks born with short parents too. It bends about 120 degrees of view into a small space - I can actually "see" the traffic light sitting nearly directly underneath it. From a position high on the windshield, it will also let you see what is below the hood deck. Just be sure not to look at it while you are driving. Things are so distorted it is quite disorienting...
