We have the el cheapo Costco special. It covers 90%+ of the glass and folded up it fits very nicely out of the way between the console and the passenger seat cushion. Here in Arizona, we use it every day.

I haven't bought one for the GLE yet but I have good experience with weathertech one for my previous car.

I purchased this and am happy with it. I live in south Florida and the sun and heat is brutal. With the clear UV tint I put on the windshield plus this it works great.

It certainly was, and now thanks to @JenCor we have a picture, and an additional solution. The linked site wasn't helpful at all - just a "buy me now" option.

The link was to the manufacturer of the sunshade (which can be exploded to reveal very detail pictures if one is not lazy). It also contains the most important - the actual part number of the shade (in silver to be exact), which can be used to find the item on other sites, hopefully for less money.

Well, my laziness has been rewarded. I didn't have to drill down 5 layers, put the thing in my cart, only to find no information after all. My reward: I think I like the one I got for $13.00 at O'Reilly Auto Parts as well!
