Default windshield sun blocker which is best

I bought a windshield sun blocker, but it doesn't fit well. What brand or model fits and works well to block out sun?

The best I have found is custom made by: Heatshield ph: 800-777-6405. Call and give them your car info, make model etc. They ship it out to your door. Cost of the Heatshield is about $40.00. Well worth it. It is a perfect fit and keeps the car cooler. I have used them on every car (over the past 15 years) I have owned from Hondas to trucks to both my Vettes. Well worth the money.

Enjoy!

I have the one from West Coast Corvettes,

http://www.westcoastcorvette.com/ps-...sun-shade.aspx

I think it works very well. It is fiited to the C5 good also. On a hot day, get into the car and collapse the thing and the heat on it reveals that it is really doing its job.

The only downside is that it feels "cardboardish". Handling it in a wrong way one time, I did manage to put a slight crease in one of the sections on mine.
