Default First in line at stop light, do you duck to see light? solution

Having just come from owning a MINI and having this same issue with the extended roof line. I didn't think I'd need it in my Jeep but it sure does help. I sit almost all the way back in my jeep cause I'm kinda long legged and more comfortable that way.

So any way back to the subject. Do any of you have this issue? I have a solution and LOVE it!

I do. I find myself leaning forward a little bit halfway often. I like you am tall, so my seat is all the way back, or nearly all the way back. I also like to sit up, so I have the seat in a more raised position.

I suppose you could sit lower? Or lift the jeep a lot... or keep the top off? Or stop a few feet behind the limit line?

I wouldn't say it's been a problem... maybe I'll notice more though after reading this.

I use one in my Jeep now and use it all the time. The only drawback is when the sun is right at it.
