TLDR: Its not a magic blind-spot eliminator, and I personally wouldn’t DIY it for more than 3hrs of my time and $500 from my pocket.
I'll have to take a trip to the dealership and ask for a 2020 to test drive, I'm really curious how bad this refocusing issue is for us 40+ folks. Wouldn't want to burn my eyes out with all those frequent, forced focus shifts.
