There seem to be a decent amount of options for the front windshield sun shade... I do park outside frequently and sometimes like to play Tesla video games in my uncovered driveway....

Has anyone tested multiple options?

If so which is the most effective / convenient to use?

I have the same scenario and my CT is not tinted yet. I bought this umbrella sunshade contraption from Amazon but haven’t tried it yet. I have purchased 2 others that use suction cups and they are a pain in the ass and not practical for heavy use.

I agree heat shield is too cumbersome, I’ve been using a generic sunshade that decently fits to at least cover sun light but still exposes the lower section where the speakers are. The umbrella style looks to fragile ??‍♂ I honestly prefer the typical spring fold in sunshade just need a company to make a large one!!

I see many options out there, but in one way or another they are a PITA to install, take down, and/or store. I am still waiting for a better option to be born.

I've been using this and kinda like it. I like that it goes down to an umbrella size but its still pretty long.
I also like that the umbrella "handle" is bent to keep away from the screen and to help support the shade. Honestly, I dont think the shade needs to go all the way to the bottom of the window. Even 80% would work and the handle could still prop it up.

Just ordered this. I purchased the seat covers and bed liner from this company and very pleased with both products, although I wish they sold the seat covers individually instead of as a full set.

I had 3M crystalline (AZ legal max tint) installed to all glass in our Model S. I works great for heat rejection and I don't need to use sunglasses.

I have tried several different shades, including the "umbrella style" and the "2-piece velcro'ed together supported by a suction cup" style, both of which were too cumbersome and looked ill-fitting. I got this Electfresh one and LOVE IT. It is the twist and pop-open style and fits the windshield exactly, and the wire frame allows you to easily maneuver and compress it while sliding it over the dash to put in place. 1 piece, easy to use and stays in place without using suction cups or having to support with a handle. Just anchor with the visors. It also twists up easily to store in a nice zippered bag. Price is also very reasonable.

Good to know! Too bad it's out of stock right now. I'll watch it
