What windshield sunshades are you using?
Its getting warm over here in Los Angeles area and i'm looking for a windshield sun shade. What are you guys using? I've used Covercraft in the past and they were decent, but wondering what else is out there.

One car I rolled up tight, so by now, 12 years later, it still forms around the windshield but its not a glove like fit.
I heard that if you just fold it in half and have the space, you can keep it like how you first get it.
On our IS, the heatshield has such a good fit you don't need the sun visors for support and it tends to knock down the rear view mirror.
It has a velco strap as well. I'm prob just going to roll it up to save space.
I am buying mine on amazon.

I bought four Covercraft in a row but the last one I bought was an "Intro-Tech Automotive Ultimate Reflector Car Sun Shade". The Intro-Tech shade seems a little more reflective than the Covercraft but there is not that much difference: http://www.autoanything.com/driving-...A5833A0A0.aspx

Intro Tech custom sunshade LX-44-P
I searched and searched but couldn't find anything anywhere before I bought this! One seller said it would fit and another said it was for a "Base" model and wouldn't fit an F-Sport with additional windshield sensors. I thought I was buying one without the cutout for sensors, but I guess I was wrong. There's a slight gap at the bottom of the mirror, but if the shade is positioned perfectly, you can sort of get rid of the sagging part in the middle. Overall, I'm satisfied with it. Definitely beats fighting with the universal one that was too big. I originally bought a smaller one that was too small! Ended up wasting $24 trying to be cheap, when I shouldve just spent the $40 the first time!

I appreciate you posting the photograph exhibiting the gap. I intend on installing the new DR900S BlackVue camera, when it is released, and the gap shown will actually help for clearance. Which brand of sun shade is it? Thanks.

I have the Intro-Tech Automotive Ultimate. Perfect fit and great for Texas heat. I have a ThinkWare camera and it fits fine between the sunshade and the windshield. Note that since this sunshade just folds, it is a bit cumbersome to put and remove and have it reach past the dash vents and into the slots around the windshield for the perfect fit.
