Sun shade

With warm weather approaching I've been thinking about getting a sun shade for the Z. Any recommendations out there? Has anyone found one for the back window too?

I have one too - much better than the flimsy ones, and it fits the windshield perfectly!

I'm not sure about getting a sun shade, not much place to keep one in the car.

There isn't much space to put anything in the car.

It takes up almost no space at all in the trunk. I tuck it under the cargo net.

The Z Store! Nissan-Datsun 240Z-260Z-280Z-280ZX-300ZX(Z31/Z32)-350Z-370Z Parts: Cargo Convenience Net, 03-09 350Z & 09-10 370Z

Dang, I feel like i should get some commission from Motorsport.

I have the other one that the Z-Store sells and it rolls-up neatly to be easily tucked behind the passenger seat or laid on the passenger-side floorboard.

I have the solid piece sun shade linked in the early posts and it will fit behind the seats but will slide back and forth if you go quick through a corner.
Though most of the time it does not move at all and stays where I put it.

I have the same one posted from the Z store and it's definitely worth it. I usually keep it behind the passenger seat but be careful moving the seat back too much while it's in there or else you can bend it.
