    Sunshade

    Who uses what brand and how do you like them? Im planning on driving my 'Rauder a LOT more this year and would like something to keep the sun off the dash when its parked outside.

    Stupid question of the day: Is there a rear sunshade available?

    I don't remember what brand my front is but always go with custom made to fit ones.
    Only one place makes a rear sunshade. They are called Heat Shield and has suction cups.

    You have to enter Grand Marquis though to see the rear one available.

    I can post pics what the side window and rear window look like if anyone is interested. Used it to good result during a car show many years ago when I wanted to sit in the back of the car without being hot.

    I have been using an Autocraft Sunshade that I bought at Advanced Auto for about $12.00. (I think the price is around $14 or $15 now). I was worried at first about the quality, but it has lasted me years so far and it works. Definitely keeps the sun and heat out. I would estimate an average 5 to 10 degrees cooler in the car with the Sunshade behind the windshield.

    I could have aligned it better, but it attaches with suction cups. It's custom fit to Grand Marquis thus Marauder.
