Windshield Sun Shade

[bigb]

I see relatively inexpensive ones on Amazon all the way up to $109 from Ford and $120 from Covercraft. With the big plastic center piece by the mirror that drops down quite a bit I'd want one that custom fits. I'm not sure if the Ford ones are always custom fit or just a 3rd party vendor that makes universal ones that "sorta" fit.

Weathertech and Husky also make custom cut ones.

Covercraft may be custom cut but not sure. I'll call them tomorrow.

Anyway where I live we take sunshades seriously, so what have you tried that fits well and doesn't sag?

I tried the cheaper ones and then went with the Covercraft UVS 100 from Amazon $90. It has the cutout for the mirror and trim. It does fold and is very rigid and is a bit cumbersome to store. It works much better in the South Florida Sun than the flexible thinner shades and the umbrella style that I tried.

I'm using this one, great fit, high quality, reasonable price. Had a WeatherTech on my F150, it was OK, but not worth the high price tag in my opinion.

I used this one.

It will stay put without the sunshades so it is custom fit

It is sort of cutout around the mirror but nut completely cutout.

I actually bought the ford sun shield obviously it fits perfecr cuts heat out but is a pain to store In a little truck I either tuck it side of the drive door along the bottom behind the seat belt fold the back seats down or just leave it out if no one else getting it back seat

I have the same and it definitely stays put. In the past I always went with the “rigid” ones but they kind of take up a lot of space so I went with this and pretty happy with it. Fits in the passenger back pocket.

I suppose I haven’t done a heat-deflection head-to-head but seems to do the trick just like the folding ones.

Only downside is with this kind I seem to accidentally move my mirror more often than the folding ones did

I bought this one from Amazon. It is a custom fit and fairly sturdy.

I had Llumar Air80 put on my front windshield when I had the rest of the windows tinted, and after that stopped looking at buying a sun shade. The difference is worth the extra cost.

I just have a generic one that works great.

I bought a Yellopro for our Ranger. It is decent and priced very well at $30. Fit is pretty dang close, but requires at least one visor to guarantee it stays up:

I have a HeatShield in my car. It is definitely a thicker and more rigid material than the Yellopro. It is cut almost perfectly and will stay up without the use of any visors. Costs more at $50:

HeatShield Sunshade

If you will be using it daily, I would say the HeatShield is worth the extra money. HeatShield runs sales, so maybe wait for Black Friday. Our Ranger sits for a week or 2 at a time and the Yellopro works well in that scenario.
