Windshield sunshade which did you buy?

[MaverRick]

I got this one because it easily stores between driver seat and center console

Me too plus it stays in place without having to use the visors to hold it up.

Rojo, thanks for the suggestion. I did not want to spend for custom fit, etc. and this one fits just fine - over the rearview mirror vs. behind it, but when flipping the visors to hold it in place it puts very mild pressure against the rearview mirror assembly. Funny, it's the same type of sunshade we've used for 10 years in my wife's 2012 Acura TSX. Again, much appreciated - scored mine from ebay for $12 including tax (no shipping charge).

No problem!

I really feel like they missed a perfect opportunity not to make those two circles googly eyes

Nothing a sharpie cant fix. I think a sunshade with eyes on it looking like something from Pixars Cars movie would be cool.

Reporting back about this shade that fits the Maverick if you're not looking to spend the $80ish for custom fit folding ones. Works great, basically holds itself up with friction along the edges but I slap down 1 visor just to be sure.

Windshield sunshade. Which did you buy? I do not have my truck yet, and am looking to get a universal sun shade to put in the windshield because of the blazing sun and heat we have here in Texas. Can anybody give me the rough height and width dimensions of the windshield in inches.

Thanks
Matt

I bought the ford one, what a flimsy POS. Got with my points so not a big cost but no better then walmart quality.

Same here. Loving mine!

Same. It’s a perfect fit. I think the $75 price tag was well worth it.

I got the OEM covercraft from ford today.

im concerned for two reasons:

1. it’s a really snug fit to get around the dash cam.

2. it’s too thick in my opinion - almost like it’s putting pressure between the windshield and the dashboard at the bottom.

are any of the ones suggested here thin/thinner?

Is it a factory dash cam, or something you added?

it’s the same dashcam you’d get as an option from Ford - installed the same way the Ford instructions show to. F200 pro kit. Mines actually installed a bit higher than a Ford tech would do - so I should have even a bit more clearance. I can get the cover installed - but it feels like I’m launching a shuttle.

put it this way - I’m confidant that the coverking never factored in the the front dashcam option.

I’m just concerned that for it to fit “right” it has to wedge in the bottom between the dash and the bottom of the windshield - and it just seems too thick.

I got a yellopro from amazon for $32, perfect fit, high quality. I’m happy with it.

A snug fit is a good thing, right

Clear ceramic tint and call it a day.

I ordered mine from HeatShield. I am very happy.

Excellent quality and a custom fit. VERY sturdy.

I find it humorous that HeatShield sells a "cover" (complete with suction cups so hold it on, no less) for the moonroof - which has a sliding cover from the factory. Guess there's a sucker born every minute, and they are keeping those bases covered... LOL

But I do like the fact that they offer a "gold" tinted one - should go better with the Cyber Orange! RealTruck.com has a bunch of these, including a gold-colored Covercraft Carhartt one for $92 - before any MTC discount.

Inexpensive and decent reviews...
