I decided to cancel my order with Sewell to get another product by Covercraft.
The one by Covercraft is alot more sturdy and it doesn't not roll up, but instead if folds up.
I had it on my old car and it was great!
It's a bit more expensive though.

I ordered it from www.jnkproducts.com they happened to be the cheapest.

I bought one of these from Sewell too. It is actually from Canvasworks. It's pretty good quality. I've had one in my Integra for the last 10 years until the brutally intense Florida sun cooked it and it got all brittle and literally started to crumble apart. It's $30 well spent IMO. If the sun was able to desintigrate the sunshield, imagine what it would have done to my dash/interior.

Different brands I suppose. It looks different enough.

FYI Pocky, I had the fold up one in your picture and it came apart at the folds after a year or so and then the silver part started chipping off in pieces. It was used daily though. I still liked the Heatshield a lot better.

windshield sunshade
What's up CL...
So i am noticing a little bit of fading on my leather and i am thinking of getting a windshield sunshade to protect the leather. I have no choice put to park outdoors when I am at work so i think it may help protect the sensitive leather... specially since summer is coming, it might be a good move. Any advice? particularly, i want something that is not too flimsy and something that will not take me a too much effort\time to put on... Is anyone using the intro-tech windshield sunshade from http://www.lexus-parts.com/partlist....34&ModelID=150 ? Appreciate the help.
