odd problem

I picked up one of the fancy UVS-100 MB windshield sunshades for my Coupe and the thing was totally the wrong size. It was too short and too wide, they had another at the dealer and it was the same (incorrect) size. The parts numbers all matched up as they should. I wonder if the vendor royally screwed up when making the things. Has anyone purchased one of these things that fits their coupe?

The problem is that MB has the wrong part number for the coupe.
I talked to Covercraft directly and they determined that MB
had published the part number incorrectly. The correct Part Number should be BQ6670020 (not 0019) as published.

I went to Brookstone

for mine. They fit and fold into a small circle. They also have the suction cups on the edges so if it snows or is icy or there is hail, you can put the sunshade on top of the windshield.

About $15.

Of course, if you don't want the suction cup thingies, Target has one for about $10

Thanks wdbaugh - I'll have them order the correct part number.
