I think you are right about the factory protector. Two reasons: 1) I can see and feel that edge on mine as well and 2) I had scratched my screen within 3 weeks, permanent "finger prints" on the home button and back button. Glass does not scratch with a finger, even here in the desert where there is always sand dust in the air and on everything. I have never scratched an iPhone or iPad with my finger. But, like another poster mentioned, no one has ever talked about taking the factory protector off.

I had a window tint guy near me install mine, he wanted $20 and it was worth it not to have bubbles. He told me that he does Rolls Royce screens for the local dealer because an earlier model didn't have them, the glass shattered in an accident and put out the driver's eye. Now RR puts them on all their screens.

I got the Anchor Room part, the non-matte version. It looks fine, a bit of an orange peel look, but you can't feel it, must be on the inside. However, this part scratches too. I'm using very high quality microfiber clothes to wipe it, still see the scratches when the top is down and the sun shines off it. It hides the permanent finger prints well though. And, once it's all scratched up, I'll put on a new one.
There’s definitely something on the lcd screen. I’m not sure what it’s made of but it’s not the lcd screen itself. You are correct that glass is difficult to scratch with a finger or cloth. Im leaning towards some shatter proof protection that is required for crashes. I’m curious if other manufacturers that use lcd screens have this on them as well. Our Honda doesn’t have glass as the screen so there’s nothing over them.

Put this on the right side of my premium screen. I like it. Figured if I didn't like it, it was only $26.60.

Thanks @roadpilot - and thank you for the pictures as well. How do you think this protector would do on a sunny day with top down in a convertible? Do you get a lot of sun glare on yours?

I agree with roadpilot, there is nothing extra for protection on these screens. They look and feel like all the other bigger screens they put in F-150's, Superduties, Expedition's.

I put the anchor room matte version on. Hides finger prints and zero glare. I've got a coupe with 20% tint, so that's probably a big factor as well.

I went with the Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector. This one just covers the center touch screen. I didn't see much point in covering the entire set of screens when you only touch the one side. Pretty happy with it but I got a couple big air bubbles which are barely noticeable if you aren't looking for them but of course I see them every time I look naturally.

Hard to get a good shot of it installed but this at least shows where the coverage is.

My spigen screen protector is great, i love it. Covers the full screen, can’t notice edges.

I don’t see the need to protect the gauge screen, it’s not a touch screen, stays clean natively.

I chose to go with the gloss finish, cause the Matte looks bad and ruins the interior fancy look in my opinion.

My windows are tinted (50% front, 35% sides, and 5% rears and back) AND I have a coupe, not a convertible, so ... :frown:

Not all scratches come from dropping something onto something else. You can scratch it by bringing something else TO the screen, such as a ring on a finger, a dirty finger with dirt/mud on it, or a stylus.

Yup. I actually had to point it out to my wife, or she would not have even noticed it.

Girls nails do significant scratches over time… that’s why i decided to protect central screen
