Im trying to decide on the Screen Protech Anti Glare vs HD. How much glare if any is on the HD version? How about the anti glare, how does it look?

I went with anti glare. Someone has a picture of the anti glare in a thread where they are selling their extra kit. You can order an additional kit for $15 incase you mess it up.

I think it is a good idea to protect the drivers screen. That has to be the softest, cheapest plastic in existence. Just wiping it with a microfiber cloth over time with still scratch it!

I waffled back and forth on it but after watching a couple videos of people installing both, I decided to go with HD. The image is much crisper and the location of the screen in a Tacoma means it's not likely to get a lot of direct sunlight so glare should be minimal unless the moonroof is open with the sun at just the right angle.
Both the kit and the truck should be arriving this week so hopefully I'll have photos to share soon.
What they should do is offer a kit that includes a full set of HD with 1 extra piece in anti-glare for just the infotainment screen then you could try both and decide.

Here you can see both installed on a Tundra with the same 14" screen.

Got the Protech HD film installed and it looks good. A few slightly blurry spots that I expect to clear up as the adhesive cures but went on pretty easily. The key is lots and lots of spray on both surfaces so you can slide it around until you get it exactly where you want it. Then once you hold in in place and start squeegeeing out the fluid, it tacks down pretty quick and stops sliding around. The small pieces for A/C and shifter were a little more trouble because they are so small they want to slide around a lot before you can get them tacked but patience will get you there.

Didn't have to crack open the spare pieces at all.

I've been creeping the 3rd gen Tundra forums, the Spigen one seems to be a popular alternative

I looked at the Spigen because I've always liked their products for my portable devices but I wanted something to cover the instrument cluster as much as the infotainment. In my experience, that plastic Toyota uses over instrument clusters scratches super easy. Just wiping the dust off with a microfiber cloth can scratch it a bit and over time they add up.

what are you doing to scratch up your screen? I've never used one on any of my vehicles and have had zero issues.

I picked up the Spigen one and installed it a few hours ago. Nice matte finish to it and easy to install.

How is the touch response with the additional glass? What did you use to clean it prior to application?

Touch response was good for me, I didnt even have to increase the screen sensitivity, cleaned the screen with the cleaning wipes included in the kit.

Touch response is great. The glass feels smooth and fingers don't drag.
I just used the supplied kit and watched the install video from the QR code.

Does it fit the 24 Tacoma 14 inch screen? I don't see the Tacoma listed.
