    maybe a good middle is to use them inside the windows but leave the windows cracked open to let the heat vent out

    I have these Shinematixs in our vehicles.

    It's just one piece so using it and storing it is quick...fold in half then twist and then fits right between the seat and console.

    The Linked Chart says size large for the Prius.

    Is that the size you got? Do you find that it fully blocks out the sun and heat as well as can be expected with no gaps as advertised?

    I don’t think it looks like it comes with a bag for storage, so does it stay folded up or does it force itself to spring open after you fold it up?

    I will prob order one pending response. $19 ain’t bad at all.

    Yep I looked at the order...it's the medium, 61x32 inches. With the visors down, does a good job blocking out the sun. In the winter, I put the black side facing out to let the sun heat up the car....helps keep ice off the windows.

    The link is saying Large for Prius? You are saying you got a medium and it fit? Large does I guess makes sense because the Prius windshield is enormous. Haha.

    I got my Heathers heat shield coming this Wednesday.

    Looks like it will do the job out here in the desert.
