Default Polorized sunglasses dont work with HUD

So, i finally broke down and got me a nice pair of glasses, and of course the saleslady talked me into going polorized. Of course i wasnt even thinking about how this would effect my HUD so when you put them on, it pretty much dissappears, you can still see it in a dark shade. Just giving you guys a heads up

Yup, lol. When I bought my new oakleys the lady thought I was just being cheap by insisting on non-polarized lenses. Even after I explained, she was like "but these are better!" To her credit, she did give me an extra soft pouch and hard case for free...
