Not a big fan of the dash covers. Looking for a nice fitting windshield sunshade. The kind that props up over the dash and held in place by the visors. Haven't seen one from the usual suppliers or any of the craftsmen here on PFF and the aftermarket auto stores don't seem to have one that fits real well.

Maybe we can get Russ88TTop to look into it? Maybe even with a logo... I think I'll send him a PM...

If someone were to make a sun shade for the windshield that had a springy edge so you could collapse it and then let it spring open for use, I'd buy one.

I use 2 cling on shade for windows and leave them year round.
reduce heat w/o blocking all light.
No storage issues, just leave on glass when panel is off.


edit, sorry... was think sun roof.

I ordered one from Covercraft and it fit very well.
They make them for each particular car.

Sunshade just got here. Very nice custom fit. Would have preferred just about 3/4" inch shorter and off the length so it would lay a bit flatter against the windshield.

Those nice flat rigid panels have me thinking about vinyl lettering / logo placed vertically on the last full height panel on each end.
