What sunshade do you guys like?

Anything other than the Acura one? I haven't checked the price for the Acura shade but I assume its expensive.

I have used the UVS100 sunshade by covercraft since I purchased my TL in 2008. Sunshades are a necessity in the Arizona heat and mine has protected my vehicle for many years and the sunshade itself has held up well.

You can buy them direct and through many other sites online.

I've bought all my sunshields from Amazon $28-$35 depending on the vehicle.

They're the same product (Heatshield) that's sold at the dealers, but at pretty much half the price.

+1 for Covercraft. I've had mine for nearly 3 years and it's great! I bought one for my dad's vehicle as well.

Covercraft uvs100 for when my car sits outside at work. Took a little getting used to being able to put it in place and remove easily since it's rather large, but I got the hang of it now and it's great. Perfect, full window coverage.

I usually fold it up and keep it in the back seat, on the floor there. If I have rear passengers then I toss it in the trunk. No biggie.
