ABSTRACT:
A reflecting apparatus for use with vehicle instrument panels to permit the operator of the vehicle to view instrument indicia when direct viewing thereof is obstructed by the vehicle steering column and/or wheel. A reflecting member is aligned substantially parallel to the instrument panel. The reflecting member has a semicircular profile, the radius of the reflecting member being substantially uniform along the longitudinal length thereof. The reflecting member is pivotal about a point along the longitudinal axis thereof, the pivoting point of the reflecting member being other than the center of curvature of the reflecting member. The reflecting member is typically mounted below the instrument indicia and intermediate the operator of the vehicle and the instrument panel. The relative position of the reflecting member with respect to the instrument indicia provides a noninverted image when viewed by the vehicle operator.
