PD, Kent - Going on a blinder. My Mrs ordered some of these HD driving glasses off the internet as she drives an 04 plate Punto and struggles with being sat in the SUV light tunnel. Paid £18 for 2 pairs.

Was sceptical at first but I had a pair to try anyway. Useful when your eyes are tired and your fellow motorists won't dip and/or think it's foggy, haven't seated replacement bulbs correctly or have bought some dodgy performance bulbs/aftermarket hid kit. Also a great help in foggy / whiteout blizzard conditions in Derbyshire's High Peak when you have to push on through...

"Going on a blinder" : I can concur with the use of yellow tinted 'night driving' glasses, I got some after cataract ops in both eyes, the clearer vision meant that some other lights on the road dazzled. I remember Dad worn a pair back in the 60s, I think the fashion might have started with rally drivers.

Re : Misdirection and Sync 3.
My understanding is that the updates are received via WiFi, therefore you would need to make your car's Sync 3 'visible' to your home WiFi (I would not suggest doing updates via a public WiFi).
I am guessing that updates are done at a set time, ie the car's unit checks at 2:00pm, 4:00am, whatever, so the car would need to be parked in a place the WiFi reaches at that time.
It's just like a Windows or MacOS update on mobile devices, the tablet or laptop needs to be linked to the WiFi when the updates are issued.

Re: Sealing facts: if the correspondent is not fully confident of a damaged tyre at motorway speeds, then the only sensible decision is to buy a new one. Does he not consider his life is worth more than £75.00?
