Do any of you pimps have and use a sun shade for your vehicle?

My car gets so frickin hot in the summer, even if I crack all four windows. Was just curious if anyone had experience with those sun shades for vehicles.

I deploy one in the rear. Why? I like my 6x9s on the rear deck. I don't sit in the back seat, so I don't know if it impacts heat buildup.
I do think it helped scorch a vinyl cling stuck to the inner glass back there. I'll have to scrape it off now.

Come to think of it I have one for the front too. Forgot I had it.

Nope. I'm sure it helps, but not enough to really matter, especially for the hassle of dealing with it. I have the small driver side rear window "blacked" out with a piece of mylar. I doubt it does much, but it doesn't hurt anything there either. I may cover some other portions of glass I don't use, but there isn't much left.

I have one that looks like Han Solo and Chewbacca flying the Millennium Falcon. It looks cool enough that I don't care if it works or not.

Yes, I use them daily. It keeps the car cooler and the dashboard from cracking.
