This is the second sun shade that I bought for my Honda Fit. The first goes by the name of Heatshield ( Sunshade for HONDA FIT 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Heatshield Brand Windshield Custom-fit Sunshade) and is one that is one piece and rolls up instead of folds. That sun shade covered almost the entire windshield (included the corner windows), but in so doing, many find it cumbersome to remove.
The Covercraft sunshade is also large. There is no getting around that, but since this sunshade comes in two pieces, a left and a right side, removal is manageable. To prevent the rear view (RV) mirror from accidentally moving if I bump up against it, I press the tab which changes the position to glare avoidance before installing and removing the RV mirror. That step pretty much keeps the RV mirror from moving unintentionally.
For me, when putting up, I've found it easier to work on the left panel first, then the right panel second. When taking down, I remove the right panel first, then the left panel second. I think the reason is because when putting up, one has to work around the steering wheel to keep the left panel in place.
There is no problem with the panels slipping down like some of the common sun shades as this panel is made with solid, non-bendable material and pretty much covers the entire windshield except for the small corner windows and a small area around the RV mirror.
I liked the Covercraft so much that I decided to return the Heatshield and use the Covercraft full time as my only car sun shade.

Initially it wasn't mentioned this was a two piece system although it makes sense since the windshield on the Fit is so large. Just to make it easier for me I made a left and right marking on the inside of the shield to designate "left" and "right" with a sharpie marker.Just makes it easier for me. It is large when in storage too so that may be a consideration but not overly. Quality of materials is very high as well as coverage. It does leave an open triangle shape but that is at mirror height and nota concern. Would recommend.
As well it has no noticeable "odor" which for me has been a problem with aftermarket cargo mats etc.
