I am getting ready to install my instruments into the panel. Has anyone who is currently flying the plane noticed any difference in readability of displays located on the upper area of the panel, as opposed to the bottom area? As there will be a small glare shield overhang I was thinking of putting my GPS high on the panel to try and keep it in the shadow as much as possible. Is there any chance that the overhang will obscure the top area of the panel?

I haven't had any problem with the glare shield obscuring my view, if
fact I'm thinking of installing a wider glare shield to reduce the
reflection of the instruments off the canopy during night flying.
