I've always used sun shades in my past cars to help cut down the Carolina heat in the summer time. I used a Cover Craft shade in my previous S197. Despite being a little awkward it fit in place like a glove. I ordered a Cover Craft shade from LMR and an Amazon Intro-Tech shade for my S550. So far neither one has fit in place. The Cover Craft had to be shoved into place and the Intro-Tech didn't fit at all. Has anybody had a similar experience and did you eventually find a shade that fit your car?

Check out "Heatshieldstore".com. Really nice laser cut shades that fit like a glove. My windshield shade covers entire window I don't even put the visors down and it stays up. Rolls up when done, I even got shades for ALL the windows that that hold with suction cups. Awesome for the huge rear window.

I use sun shades from HotTopic! They fit well, in my opinion.

I use a WeatherTech one for the S550, fits well and covers the pillars which I noticed the Covercraft version didn't.

I know the solar constant of rise in the east, set in the west. So I always park with the back of my car facing the sun, or in the shade!

I still carry the spring-loaded oval shades I got from The Black Mustang Club™ (remember The Black Mustang Club?) and they still work just fine. I also carry a California Pop Top, which I use when the need for shade is a little longer or more pressing (desert sun, for example). Both solutions have their good points and have covered all my requirements, so far. The Pop-Top was especially appropriate for cars with black tops, of which I've had a few.

This is what I ordered off Amazon. Fit isn't exact but it's good enough and it's cute.

I have the same Cover Craft shade in my car. I've used it every day for the last two years and it works perfect.

I ordered another Covercraft Shade to see if maybe I got a dud. I’m trying the version with the 50 Years logo from CJ Pony Parts. I also ordered a shade from the Heat Shield Store after hearing some positive reviews. I’ll keep whichever fits the best. Thanks for posting everyone!

Covercraft. I have one for my Integra and the s550. Fits great and won’t fold up like tin foil after a year of use like the cheap ones. On the s550, it gets sort of hung up on the pillar speakers but once you figure out how to slide it in, you’re good

I have a Covercraft UVS100 that I thought had a nice fit. If there is a better one I'd go for it.
