Bought a raptor cap made for fish finders. I couldn't find one that would fit without cutting so I bought one 2 bigger measured my screen then cut out a strip in the middle joined the two halves then used the cut out strip with crazy glue to hold the two together.
Its held onto the unit by the Velcro that comes with the cap.
Cost $24
It works pretty good shading the sun so you can see the screen.
Wow, what a great idea! That's really slick, thanks for sharing! |

That might work well with the E-Trac characteristic screen glare.

how come that isn't standard on machines? I hate when the sun dictates the angle I detect.
