Canada Sun Shades

I see on the US JK forum there are people making their own sun shades. Has anyone around Ont done that? I can't fine the sun screen. In the US they are getting it at Lowes and Home Depot. I can't find it and when I ask they look at me like I have 3 heads.

Check out Dirtydog 4X4 Jeep Accessories. They make sun shades for jeeps. They are located in mississauga and provide prompt shipping.

yes I have looked at those and the others but I wanted to make my own. I have seen what others have done for like $30 to $40 bucks but just can't find the material here. Summer is almost over so I may just get one over the winter, no rush now.

I picked up a dirty dog from just jeeps. Cost about $70 (rear only in a jku). I was going to make my own, but by the time I buy the materials and tools....plus time sewing (my time is a limited resource)...i figured I save myself by just buying it. Front and back will be ~$149. Still money well spent!

**edit** I didn't see your last post about you wanting to make it your own. I went to a fabric store to look for the mesh and rings. Forgot what the cost was going to be. Try your local fabric store. They might carry them.
