Windshield Sun Shade

Hey to all you MaxHeads. I have a real mundane question to ask. I've not been able to find one of those sun-shade inserts that fits on the front windshield. WallyWorld (Wal-Mart) has a couple of brands, but the specs show they don't fit an '02 and believe me, they don't (even though they fit an '00-01). Can anyone turn me on to a brand/retailer that will fit an '02?

i would imagine that any sun shield that fits the 2K and 2K1s would fit a 2K2.

Try this site:
heatshield
they have patterns for alot of cars; the one they have for the max fits well, a bit pricey but it covers the entire windshield

I got mine at the local Target. It's actually 2 ovals, not connected. I don't remember the name but they had millions of them. I got the larger of the two sizes (the one that was recommended for Maxima on the package).

It was inexpensive and works well.

I have these for my front and rear window. They work GREAT. Fit like they are supposed to as well. The back they want you to put 4 circles of velcro, but I found the if you are tricky you can slide the shade into the headliner and that holds it better.

I have had them for over a year and they are holding up great. I recommend them highly.
