Sun Shade

Post by HenryJ »

Lets see your solutions to beating the sun!

I have the simple windshield twist to deploy sun shades for the windshield.

And the Campinglab awning for the side-

Last weekend I went into the baby isle in Wallyworld and picked up a few of the retractable sun shades for the side windows.

The front windows are just using the suction cups to hold them. In the rear I zip-tied them to the grab handles.

That awning is "THE STUFF!" OMG, I never new what I was missing. So easy to deploy and offers such a nice place to take a break.

I also have a Spinnaker SUV sun shades. That is a little more work to deploy, but it was only $17
I have yet to REALLY use it. Might be an affordable option though.
