Default Can't see the stop lights?

I was just poking around the forum, and came across a few of the old familiar complaints about not being able to see stop lights.
My D1 came with a little stick-on lens at the top of the windshield, which lets you see the lights without bending down, not that it would be bother me much in the first place.
So anyway, I googled these things, and what do you know, here's a company that sells them, and it looks like they've got a Discovery right there at the top of their banner! Ha!

(I have absolutely nothing to do with this business, by the way.)

They put most lights on poles to the sides of the intersection too. I just look at those.

You know, those pesky different colored lights at intersections? That's them.

I'm short, so I don't really have this problem. I thought this little magnifier thing was a sticker, but it's just a static thing, so if any tall guys want one, I'll send you mine for nothing. As dorky as they look, they do actually work, I guess.
