What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

I have one of these. It's ugly but it does its job effectively and it fits well. It's a PITA to roll it up every-time when you get into your car but it really helps keep some heat out and it protects your dashboard pretty well.

I would prefer a BMW folding sun shield like the one JP folded but they don't fit too well..

I had one of these in my last car, fit was excellent. The only issue is that after quite a few years, it somehow got air inside and it would puff up when in the windshield for a while... Wouldn't be too hard to put some slits in the sides to prevent it, I just never did. It just made it even more PITA to roll up... Oh well... Still a worthwhile purchase in my eyes. I might do this again if the OEM one doesn't fit too well.

Was looking at one of those for the CX-5.

I'd get it. It's a pretty solid product, its worth rolling it up every time, at least you are protecting your interior and keeping some heat out.

Hmm. Mine hasn't puffed up yet.. It is a few years old but it's holding up very well.

I have the springy kind that you bend/fold (from Brookstone) and it fits the windshield OK (but barely). Worth getting if they still have them.

Good deal. Appreciate the info.

Well, heck, just when you think you were almost caught up on your chores, it's Detailers Domain to the rescue. Now if I could just decide on what products I want to go with, we could amp up the awesomeness of the Imola a couple notches

Finally got my 6LED license plate bulbs in.

First pic is the old 3LED bulbs and second pic is 6LEDs.

NOTE: Driver side bulb in first picture was aimed incorrectly causing it to appear darker than the other side.

Good job, now the police can see it better.

I never quite understood the fascination with bright license plate bulbs...
