HeatShield Windshield Reflectors / Shades

assagor · 06-29-2004, 02:29 PM

I also ordered one. Thanks Danny. Quick question, is there a way to know when our heatshield has shipped? I know this isn't a fancypants online store operation, but is there a way to get a tracking number?

If you haven't received your item after 5 business days, feel free to contact me and I'll ask CanvasWorks for your UPS tracking #.

Due to popular demand, I have changed the payment system to be a shopping cart now so that you can order multiple HeatShields at once. I have also added an option for you to input yourselves the make/model of any other car you want a HeatShield for.

If you would like to order multiple HeatShields, the price is $54.00 shipped for 2, $80.00 shipped for 3, and $105.00 for a full set of all 4 HeatShield pieces (Front, Rear, Front Side, Rear Side).

I apologize for not having this up sooner.

These things are selling a lot faster than I ever thought they would - 24 hours before the prices go up a little bit!

Oh well I guess that makes me a day early and $2 early. Glad the heat shield are going like hot potatoes. Hope that the volume continues after the sale so that PriusChat can maintain its distributor status. If that ends up changing be sure to post a "going out of business" sign so that those of us waiting for a (second) Prius can buy an support the forum at the same time.

As usual I waited until the deadline, though I ordered mine with several hours to spare.

I've now added some pictures of the rear and side HeatShields to the original post and will add them to the http://priuschat.com/forums/heatshield.php page as soon as I get a chance.

Getting the headshield to unroll....

Ours arrived rolled pretty tightly, and it really wants to stay that way. As usual in these 'we don' need no steenkin' manual' days, we tossed the packaging with instructions and threw the unit into the car.

Yesterday, we tried to use it for the first time but couldn't get the shield to unroll and stay that way.

Were we supposed to "train" it, somehow?

Thanks!

Since the sale is over, I purchased sun shades from Toyota for the front window. It is a roll up kind, and is made for the 2004 Prius. It fits snugly, and looks very similar to the Canvasworks one (from what I could tell.)

The list price was $24.95, and they had a 10 % off sale at Toyota of Oxnard.

I saw no response to my previous post regarding a heat shield that is rolled up nicely, but is quite springy and won't stay unrolled well enough to stay on the windshield...

So, is the answer to return it?

**Danny** · 07-07-2004, 04:26 PM

I think I'd probably lay it out flat for up to 12 hours and then see how it is. If it's not good for you then, give CanvasWorks a call. Their CS has been pretty impressive.

Just an update, the reduced pricing is continuing for a little bit longer because of requests from people who didn't see the sale before. Get em while they're hot!
