370Z UV sunshield product review

I received mine a little over a week ago and I love it. It keeps my car sooo much cooler, esp with the tint. It makes it harder to see

I received mine a little over a week ago and I love it. It keeps my car sooo much cooler, esp with the tint. It makes it harder to see in as well. It's a little tricky to put up and take down with how small the car is, but I haven't managed to hit anyone while doing it yet. I usually just tuck it behind the passenger seat, although it ends up behind my set if I take a quick turn. Not a big deal though.

Major temperature difference with it up. I live in Florida with temps around 90 everyday and the black dash would be on fire before I started using this.
Now it stays as cool in my car. ( I do have window tint as well )

Gets my vote for the best windshield visor for the 370

Hey Vipor, just noticed your sig did you get the ok from Dark_Sub_Rosa who designed it or just lifted for you self? I asked and he designed mine. that's what it's about. I just happened across your post and noticed it. Sorry Kaiser for throwing a wrench in the thread.

No need to apologize. It's always nice to ask for permission before using ANYONE'S "personally" created sig or avatar. I am assuming he/she did that.

On topic//
Great to know everyone is happy with it. It does reduce the interior temperature significantly.

I'm looking at the one on the website, and that link shows it inside a Chrysler 300... Am I looking at the same one? I'm guessing this isn't a 'Car Specific' type but a generics 'Fits this window shape' one? I was hoping for a Z specific one since they tend to fit YOUR car better... ?

I'm not sure what you're saying, Chris. The link in the OP takes me straight to the 370Z specific sunshield.

I just want to say that this is one of the BEST sunshield available for the 370Z. I use it everyday and it work fantastic! Highly recommend this to all Z members who park their car on the street or open sunlight. Save YOUR Z interior from FADING and TEAR!

Pretty good. I don't take the detector off. I simply put the shield over it. Just don't push it all the way. I will post some pics after the US vs. Slov World Cup game.
