Windshield sunshade?
I had found a link a long time ago to a JDM "kit" that included a shade, shifter cover, and one other part. Would anyone happen to know where to purchase that item?

Wish Mitsu had one for the US market - the other OEM shades I've purchased fit like gloves.

Thx.

Yeah found it there in page 2 of interior, it's $262 and covers 3 windows front windshield and 2 front side windows. That price is mighty steep tho

Local tint shop quoted me $150 to install clear windshield protection. Protects against UV, lowers temp and it's always in place.

It's cheaper than the OEM protector. I also have had problems finding a good aftermarket fit.

I plan to get this done soon.

I think that's ceramic tint the link's talking about. I have it in my Talon, definitely a big difference!

I found the PepBoys one to work decent lol...

I have the heatshield sun visor and it does fit like a glove. One of the best things I've bought for my car so far.

i have one too..they are held up with the sunvisor unfortunatly our visors suck *** and are cheaply made..so it doesnt work that great..

if you guys dont go for the "headshield" brand one..(which i totally recommend, cause it actually works and is worth the extra money). and you cant find one specific for the evo x look for one that fits a 2006 accord sedan, cause i took mine out and put it in the beater and it fits like a glove also
