Hello! I live in AZ, and with the hot season rapidly approaching I suddenly realized I don't have a sun screen that will fit my windshield! I've been using one of those pop-up magic shade screens (with cool dragon eyes print), but it's a standard size, and will only fit when I have the top up. (I have to stick it in the gap at the top seal) I can't find any "small" sized screens. Any suggestions? What is everyone else using?

dam,
I never thought anyone here would have heard of KMFDM. Guess i'm used to being considered the odd person.

I'm going to get one just because it was cut to fit our cars.

It's fairly smooth-very stiff-it rolls up with velcro and will fit behind a seat fine. Definitely not a cheap cheesy flimsy thing! Folding it, say in half with it rolled up, not an option!

I've seen those before, but not a big fan of em...For one I think they are kinda ugly. Also my dad had one of those foil sunshades once. If you don't have it covering your dash PERFECTLY, the light will reflect back and cook your dash twice as bad.
It was a goofy nickname I had back in Jr. High back when I was a wannabe "hacker" For some bizzare reason it kinda stuck. I have a handful of old school friends who still refer to me as "Kap"/"Kaptain" It gets a little bizaare when we are in a group in public.. All these mystified stares wondering why this little mexican guy, and this huge black guy are referring to me as a "Captain"

I'm in arizona as well and to tell you the truth, no matter how small they are they are still a pain in the rear to store and get out when you want it. I end up just never using mine. My windows are tinted real dark so I just don't park the car facing the sun.
Yay for Valley of the Sun Stroke!
Oh and, the one I got bends and stuff into a small circle shape and fits fine behind the seats or in the trunk no matter if it's up or down. I got it at WallyWorld for like 8 bucks. It's cloth and reflective cloth on both sides.
