Windshield Sun Shield/Screen
Windshield Sun Shield/Screen
I've done a bit of looking around and can't find anything talking directly about this, so here goes...
I can't find a sun screen/shield that fits well. I've looked around all the local places and purchased a couple of them.
I tried the accordian type that is is just too wide. I had to get the large so it would be long enough (still huge hole around mirror) but I have to fold the ends in b/c it's too wide.
I tried the twist to fold round ones and they too didn't fit well enough. I spoke with somebody at my dealership that told me the parts department had fitted screens. Some new guy at the parts counter looked at me like I was crazy.
My buddy has a new RX-8 and Mazda had a perfetly fitted visor for it. I'm a perfectionist and want the same for my TSX.
Anybody had any luck?

hondacuraworld.com has sunshades from the same company (Into-Tech) listed for the Pilot and the Element for $7 cheaper than wooddash.com shows them for the TSX. Perhaps HAW will carry them for the TSX if enough people drop them a line requesting it.
I got a cheap accordian type sunshield from Wall-Mart. Plastic thingy sorta like stiff bubble wrap covered in foil. The "large" size seems to fit the TSX. Can't recall what brand name it had on it, it was only $8.00.
I just bought a sun shade Made by Covercraft (www.covercraft.com). It fits perfectly. I tried generic shades and all were too big or too small. I have had a Covercraft shade for my BMW for 6 years now and have been pleased with it. Their website will direct you to retailers. They are made to order from patterns specific to each vehicle.

I bought a fitted sun shade/screen at my dealer's parts department... It rolls up and has a velcro strap intead of having the "accordion" type of sun shade/screen. I love it because it fits exactly to the windshield...plus it keeps my car's interior so much cooler than not having one.

I noticed yesterday the Home Depot sells the same bubble/foil stuff I mentioned above in large sizes as a "water heater jacket". If you were so inclined, you could use that to custom-make your own. Slap a couple of Mugen stickers on it and woohoo, mod city.
