Default Sun Shade for Windshield

Has anyone else tried to find a sunshade for the front windshield? I'm talking about the foldable thingy that you protects the dash and keeps the direct sunlight out of the Jeep when parked.

I have yet to find one that fits. I even looked at the back of the packaging and it says it fits the Wrangler, but doesn't.

If I could find a cardboard one I could just cut it down to fit, but they all seem to be made of that damn aluminum foil crap now.

Anyone got a lead for me?

Thanks for posting this. I have been trying to find a solution also, with no luck so far.

Hopefully, someone has a good solution.

I still have the last one that I bought, thinking that it would fit. I'll try cutting it down tonight and taping it. I'm just afraid the tape is not going to hold up well in the heat we get here in New Mexico.

The search will continue. Thanks for your input.

Amazon sells one that I just got and it fits perfectly. Just search for 2007 Jeep Wrangler sunshade and you'll find it. Costs $34, so a little pricy, but for a perfect fit, it was worth it.
