II do like the concertina fold up as opposed to the roll up though, i feel it's better use of the space.
I like that also over the roll up and was going to give the Husky/Covercraft a try until I saw the larger gap around the RV mirror.

There was also a comment somewhere that mentioned the fit around the mirror and that it let a lot of light in.

Mine looks similar to this. I don’t recall the brand because I got it off Amazon. There’s room around the mirror but it definitely helps getting it in and out. It came with a bag. I like it and I store it under the back seat. I’ll look for the Amazon link.

Found it. No longer on Amazon but found it here on Auto Anything

https://www.autoanything.com/driving...A5833A0A0.aspx

Here’s a pic in super direct sunlight. Keep in mind this thing is 4yrs old for sure. As for the mirror I get it in and out without removing my radar detector. To each his own but you can’t have it all. Personally I don’t want to play with it for 10min every time I’m putting it in. The sides are gapping because I’ve folded/ opened this thing up a million times so the length shrank a little because the joints are collapsed. The main reason I bought this is because I wanted a rigid model, not something squishy.

I have this one and love it. Fits great and follows the contours of the windshield well, although has a bit of a gap around the rear view mirror, but that doesn't bother me at all. This is my first custom fit shade so it's far better than any others I've had before.

Looks like a nice option, in-between i guess for price point and thickness, i wonder if it fits the 12g.

Yeah I bought it because it was a custom fit shade and also not $50. It's nice and sturdy for the price. Doubt that one would fit a 12th gen but maybe that same company makes one for them.
