Window Visor?
Anyone know where I can get one of those window visor things for when I park out in the sun? Looking for one maybe with the corvette logo or at least sized correctly for the vette. Let me know what you've seen thanks.

Has anyone here ever used one of these. Do they help? I park my car outside at work and with out 90+ degree days the interior gets hot. Just looking at protecting my dash and maybe helping it stay a little cooler. Thinking about getting that some tint and putting on the painted roof to help. Thanks again

I use the highly reflective (silver foil) sun screens for maximum effect. You can buy them in most any automotive store and they come in sizes to fit virtually any vehicle. Mine does not have any logo but it fits the C6 fine and rolls-up when not in use. A little more window tinting also helps cut interior heat dramatically...especially with the design of the rear hatch glass. I won't use blackout 'limo' tint on the back glass but I did go darker than on the side windows.
Buy the windshield sunscreen and tint your windows...it really does make a difference.

Same here. In Dallas area a windshield sunscreen is a must for every car. I use the kind that is two seperate pieces that you put together and twist into small circles to store behind my passenger seat. They fit the entire windshield well and are less bulky to use. Plus, they take up very little space to store. They are more of a fabric texture than coated cardboard.

The prior link is to a roll up foil type. I'm sure it works fine, but this one is much more elegant. If sun shades can be so. And is heavy duty.
