In the 1940s and 1950s, when many people had sun visors on their
Detroit iron, there was a plastic lens, half-moon in shape, that was
secured to the inside of the windscreen with a suction cup. That was
supposed to make it possible for one to see an overhead stoplight.
Are those things still in production?
Would a small piece of the plastic Fresnel lens material that we see
on campers/caravans have the effect of bringing a view of the stoplight
to a tall MGB driver?
