I just went out there. They sold it to me at the ebay price without shipping. I did have to pay taxes though.

These are extremely good quality - have used for about 15 years. The brand is HEATSHIELD and this is what PARK PLACE LEXUS on EBAY is selling. I have had one for my IS350 and the fit is very good. Recommended.

no free shipping for me... they'd offer highest shipping item price plus 3.99 for each additional item.

I've had one of these for about 3 months. It works great when it doesn't collapse in the middle and prevent it from covering my whole windshield. It doesn't want to stay put. Maybe it was creased too much during shipping. I don't know. Better than what you can get at the store though.

x2. Mine is starting to sag right in the middle and I've only had it for a month or so now. You can tell that it wasn't made specifically for our car as the notch at the top is noticeably off-center (at least mine is.) The OEM I had in my G was perfect. It went completely flat on the window and covered every corner.

I also have the Heatshield one, Personally. I think it sucks. Always sags in the middle, please explain to me the usefulness of it when it sags in the middle? Sometimes it would slip off the visor, and that's it. Game over.

Although I found these
http://www.lexus-parts.com/partdetai...bCategoryID=34

Appears to be of better quality and thicker than the Heatshield ones.

Gonna give it a whirl.

I have the one from Sewell and its good, nice and sturdy and does not sag at all. It was shipped in a huge rectangular box and was not bent at all during shipping and it came in about 3 days.

That's the same one I got and it was also packaged well in a box. I think Park Place and Sewell must have the same (Heatshield) ones.

Park Place sells Heatshield. Sewell sells Intro-Tech.

Different brands I suppose. It looks different enough.
