I picked up a cheap Target sunshade. It doesn't reflect enough heat for me and they (2 discs) can be difficult to put away sometimes.

Okay, you caught me - though it's extremely rare since we have parking garages at work too.

Rather than mess with the ugly, bulky sunshades, do two things:
1. Tint windows
2. Apply 303 Aerospace Protectant every month. Guaranteed to not allow fading/sun damage if applied monthly. Purchase from autogeek.com. Amazing stuff.

Doing the above, you'll never have issues with interior sun damage while you own the car.
