I would buy one. May i suggest the pop open kind. I had one of those foil ones before and they are kinda bulky.

I think the design would have to be pop open for sure, maybe some suction caps to make sure it stays on the screen too. And a perfect fit just for the Yaris, just like the one Thomas sells (pictured below).

yep but those OEM toyota ones are actually two separate pieces that overlap, quite a pain in the butt... As to folding them up to stow away, another big pain in the butt...

Since I just got my car I've been looking around for one of these since the heat is starting soon.

But it depends on the price and well, how bold it is.

I know its about advertising for the forum (which I'm still a noob here, but I still love it :)) But if its going to be exceptionally bright or huge huge lettering, I might pass because it would just be too tacky for me.

I would suggest white with gray lettering so its not super super bold. Or make two different kinds.. one that someone who wants to be a billboard would like and someone who wants to to be less conspicuous with faint or smaller lettering. Unless I'm just the weirdo :P

I think it's a cool idea but as others have said, I don't use those pop out shade thingies. I did when I was in AZ, but it just doesn't get hot enough here in Oregon.

I guess I'd feel weird advertising the yaris with a tach, considering mine didn't come with one...

good idea though :)

Ide pay. In oklahoma sun shades come in handy. And by handy I mean they keep your car from becoming an oven in the summer. So yeah I need one anyways.

I'd like one. The one I use doesn't fit. It's not tall enough and is too wide. The Yaris has a tall and narrow windshield.
