Default Windshield Sun Shade for A4

Does anyone have a decent quality sun shade that will fit the B8 A4? Unfortunately, the two sun shades that I used on my previous car will not fit in the A4 because it appears that the A4 has an abnormally large rearview mirror.

Here's a link to ECS Tuning that has a sunshade model for the B8 and they are advertising 40% off: http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/Audi...ade/ES1928398/

I got my sunshade from this online place in Sunnyvale, CA. It fits my 2010 A4 Sedan perfectly without any problems. The price is a little more than the one you're looking at on the ECS site. I'm sure the one that the ECS site should fit just fine too.

I have one of these. It fits the windshield and does what it's supposed to but it's a annoying to work with and store. It's big and rolls up - I store mine in the trunk. If doing it over, I'd consider something that folds up smaller so that you could keep it under the seat.

Does this one fold shut or does it have to be rolled? My preference is for a rolling sun shade, but I will go with a rolled one if there are no other options.

Sorry for the late response. The sunshade from heatshield rolls up and does not fold. I usually roll it up and store it in my trunk. Hope this helps.
