Default Sunshade for the Z?

So with summer here and the sun beating down on our Z's, who here uses a sunshade? I did a search and found some posts awhile ago where people liked the sunshade from Courtesy Nissan. Said it was a bit expensive, but it fit perfectly. Any recommendations?

Many dealers carry them also. I got mine at my local dealership and it fits perfect and since its 110-120 degrees where I live in summer it helps especially for the ultra violet rays. I think mine was about $30 but to me worth it.

Actually I got a cheap one at Advanced Auto ... fits perfect ... only like 4 bucks. It'll probably last only 2 or 3 summers but It's definitely better then the overpriced Courtesy shade.

I purchased one from the Nissan dealership (Falore Nissan) for about $30 and it fit's like a glove. Plus it really makes the interior way cooler.

I just picked up one of those two piece, fold up into a flat circle type sunshade at the auto parts store, works great and is cheap. Hitting 110 F. today.
It slides right behind the passinger seat too.

I have one from Kragen by a company called "Axius" (or something like that). Anyways, its the aluminum one and it fits the Z PERFECTLY! Plus it's only like $6-7.

Courtesy Nissan's. Had it before the Z arrived. Excellent fit+quality. You can't beat a custom-fit shade.
