Anyone know where I can get those silver-coated thingies you put in your windscreen so that the car doesn't get overheated in the direct sunlight?
Thanks

Must dig mine out, you just reminded me. Thanks.
I brought a couple back with me from Aus 2 yrs ago before they became popular here. I threw them out a while back because the sun doesnt really shine so hot up here - until this weekend. I left the car in sun (had no choice) and I could hardly hold the wheel whn I came back :(

My Pug dealer gave me a 207 one at a launch evening the other night. But I don't need it cos I have some fancy heat reflective windscreen (Aethermic?)
(Aethermic?)
difference it has made. It's still like getting into an oven when the car has been sitting in the sun for a few hours.
Well of course - unless the rear windscreen and all the other windows also have the coating, I can't see it making much of a difference?
And the roof and sides.
It allows them to charge you £800 for a new front screen.
And you have to buy the factory fitted sat-nav as the likes of Tom Tom won't work properly. They are, in my expert opinion, a complete waste of time.
Sat Nav or the windscreen?
