991.2 windshield accordian fold heat shield
No luck with searches here...apologies if I've overlooked.
Any of you find a folding foam board reflective windshield shade that fits? The one I bought and returned to CovercraftDirect has side contours that did not fit correctly, was not wide enough by 1.5" on the lower portion, fit with far too much space around the rear view mirror pod, and was at least 1.3" too tall to fit up against the window correctly. Yeesh. And I had to pay shipping to return stuff that didn't fit. Whine.
I see Suncoast sells these items, but haven't gotten a reply with dimensions, so before I order one from them and each other supplier and try them all for fit, sigh, I'm checking with you.
I have or have had a number of these in other cars, all with good to excellent fits (e.g., 1/4 to 1/2" gaps, fit nicely up against the glass along the entire perimeter). Even in a (*&*&(& van. But not so far with the 991.2. Any luck out there?
I have a roll-up shade now, but find I prefer those that accordion-fold flat.
Tnx for an clues you may offer.

Suncoast sells the OEM one, so it should fit.
