    Does anyone know a good source for 488 sun shades? As cheesy as they look, these are pretty much a requirement in Florida.

    I've been looking at getting this https://www.amazon.com/HeatShield-Original-Sunshade-Ferrari-Gold in silver/white but was hoping to find something a little more premium. However, it seems there are far less options for newer Ferrari's than other models. My last car was a Maserati Granturismo, which had a very nice OEM sunshade.

    Final question.. Do the sunshades fit well behind the seats? I can't really tell (I ended up just giving the Maserati sunshade to the buyer, otherwise I could have used that to atleast see if a foldable sunshade fits nicely behind the seats)

    I love in Arizona so I get the heat issue. I don’t need use a sun shade myself but there is a good amount of room behind the seats so storing one there should not be an issue.

    But instead paying $ 50 (or so) you can easily buy a good and cheap one and use a scissor imo ?

    Or get a (anti-sun) carcover ….

    I know the thick folding ones like this do a better job at keeping the car cool but does this fit well behind the seat? Not sure if I need to get one of those fully collapsable sun visors.

    They use to fit in the back but I end up getting a custom subwoofer system in the back. I now leave them in the front trunk.
