Default Sun shade thing for front window? (One that fits right...)

Okay, I bought one of those sun shading things for my front window so the car will not heat up as much when it is parked. However, it fits horribly! I got it from the Acura dealer and it is for an Integra, but it just sucks. the fitment is pretty off. Any suggestions on which brand to get? (and don't say get your windows tinted cause that's not gonna happen).

I got one of those self-folding ones and it works fine. Don't remember the brand or anything, but I got it at Target.

Get the one from Brookstone in any mall. It fits like a charm.
I've used it for 3 years now.

If anyone knows where to find one from an S2000. Let me know.
I think it's like 17 bucks.

Yoshi, I bought the same one and it sucks!!!!

It's square so it doesn't fit the window right. Do you have a part number possibly? I am going ot return this one ASAP cause it's horrible!!!

I've got one from Acura Club. It fits perfectly, pillar to pillar and top to bottom. The one that's shown is for a honda, the Integra version doesn't have a notch in the top for the rear view mirror.

A300 is the one I have for my 95 LS. It's a little pricey but it fits perfectly.
