Anyone recommend a nice sun shade for our Stingrays? Looking for a quality product that stows easy. I had the two-piece shades for my C6. Unfolded easily and stowed behind the seats. Thanks.
I got one of the ones that are "custom made" for the C7. Today, the first 95 degree day of the year, the whole thing slid down from under the visors. Very disappointing (and expensive.) I think the only thing that will work is the stiff folding kind. The stiffness will allow the visors to trap the shield even though there is a 2" gap between the visor and the windshield. And it won't sag in the heat. Trick is to find one that fits.
I've found that if you cram the sunshade up under the visors there is enough grip to hold the shade up. (Although I don't know if it will be enough when we start getting 100+ degree days a month from now.) It does expose a couple inches of the dash at the bottom, but it doesn't affect the shades function much. I still think a stiff shade, or one with suction cups, may be better. I'll try just about anything to salvage my $30 "investment" in a fitted shade...

My pool noodles hold the Intro-Tech Sunshade CH 907R custom fit for C-7
best fit sunshade,but yes the visor will not hold it.The pool noodles do the job but maybe 3 suction cups is a better idea attached to the sunshade
will try this option.R
Bringing this back to life...
Bought an Intro-Tech CH-907-R corvette shade - Ultimate Reflector Sun Shade - from https://www.autoaccessoriesgarage.com/ It's too tall so it doesn't fit inside the windshield surround which means it's inches away from the glass at the top so the heat will soak in. The shade should fit against the windshield glass but it doesn't. Gonna return this and look for another.
This is how it should fit but it's too long/tall...
Intro-Tech CH-907-R, I am able to deal with the height...Mine is too wide! Instead of returning it, I recycled the shipping box before check fitting, I had to cut 1 end ~2" to make it fit flat.
I am very disappointed, due to I have 1 for my other 2 cars and the fit is PERFECT on both, but not this one for my C-7!
