What’s that thing called that used to be on dashboards of old cars that reflected the stoplights so you could see them under the sun visors, and would that work on a modern car with how stoplights are hung now?
The 300’s low roof combined with my seating position (way the fuck back) mean I sometimes have to suck forward to look at stoplights (forget it if I have my sun visors down) and I’d really prefer if I had the option to not do that.
I included this old dodge to try to sweeten the deal.

Bummer, I was hoping they had a cooler name. Stoplightoscope or something.

I vote we change it to that.

CalzoneGolem got it. Traffic light viewer or finder.
Nice ‘39 - I know of a church where there’s a picture in one of their buildings of members back in ‘40 or so with one.

To answer the question, should absolutely work. I saw an ad for some product that does the same thing up behind the mirror. The modern ones use a magnet or suction cup, but it would be totally worth it to get a real vintage Fulton if you can find one.
The windshield in the Galaxie is steep enough I’d need one of these if the hood wasn’t so long.

MINI guys used to use something like this. Maybe put it closer to the mirror.
