    Question What kind of Sun Shade?

    What kind of sun shade should I use. The windshield is frickin HUGE! I am wondering what kind of luck folks have had at finding a shade that fits well in the window. I personally think the high reflective ones seem to work best, but I can not seem to find onw that fits right. Suggestions? Brand, Size, type? Thanks,

    I have one that has the two panels that you twist into a circle to close. You know what I'm talking about? They have 'em at Wal-mart if you're interested. However, instead of putting them vertically ACROSS the dash, I put them horizontally with the vanity mirrors up to the glass.

    i use the reflective sunshade. I bought it from walmart, not the greatest but it does the job, especially since my car sits in a parking spot all week with the windows closed :( ... Poor car only gets used on weekends ! --joe

    My sunshade was delivered last night. It's a little difficult to unroll, because of the massive height, but it fits perfectly. I'll post a pic or two after work.

    Thumbs up

    Want one that's custom cut to the EXACT shape of the Si windshield, folds easy, has a reflective front and is insulated?

    Go here, I've bought them before and they work great:

    California Car Cover Co.
    1-800-423-5525
    Tell them what you drive and they'll set you up. The item is called a UV Sunshield.

    You can also get custom shades from Proper Auto Care or Griots Garage

    I got one of those twist and fold sunshades and it fits OK. It leaves the top part of the window exposed though...

    I got the Heat-Shield shade from HandAaccessories.com. It was $18 online, and $40 at the dealership. They are shaped exactly like the windshield and work very well.

    However, they are HUGE and when someone else is getting in the car, you cant avoid hitting them in the face with it when you are taking it down, rolling it up, and stashing it in the back.
