Do you use a window sun deflector?

If so which one is a good one? I have a black car and Im thinking in the summer it will get HOT. Maybe one of these can help with that though.

Re: Do you use a window sun deflector?

If you are talking about the reflectors you put in the windshield when the car is parked then yes, they do indeed make a huge difference. I bought one from AG that fits my car and it is fantastic. However, I will admit that I have a cheap silver foil type one from Wal Mart on the truck and it works darn well too!

Re: Do you use a window sun deflector?

I had the Eclipse one in my Expedition and it worked great since it was always mounted on the window. You just had to reach up and pull the two together. Have not put one in the 300 yet but will soon, with summer coming and it being black...
and for "do they work?" I can tell a huge difference when I use it and don't. I find with the folder out one I do not actually put it up as much as with the one that is mount on the windshield. But that just might be my lazy butt!

I use one all the time, even when it's not too hot out. Remember it's protecting from UV too, not just the heat.

Mine is straight from Mazda, but that Covercraft from AG looks awful sweet.

Re: Do you use a window sun deflector?

I use the cheap sliver foil one from wally world and it works great. The one Norah liked looks kick ass just out of my price range, or better yet more then I'm willing to spend.

Re: Do you use a window sun deflector?

The one AG sells from Covercraft is the best ....I have one and worth every penny ....the cheaper ones do not keep it cooler..just blocks the sun...but they die off fast from the UV...the covercraft is well made and it does keep the inside cooler...
