    Does anyone own one? I am looking into their Ultimate Autoshade for my '97 Tacoma. I am wondering if it has a cutout for a windshield mounted mirror or not. I removed the factory ceiling mounted mirror and installed a windshield mounted mirror and want to see if the shade is going to work or not with my mirror, before I purchase it.

    They don't have a cutout, I have one for my 2004 and they are really nice material, but no cutout.

    Thanks, for the reply. Do you think a cutout for the mirror can be made without ruining the shade? I am thinking of maybe having an upholstery shop do it, because from what I have read, intro techs are the best window shades.

    Honestly I don't think so. You'll probably ruin the shade

    Ok, thanks. I think I am going to order the Weathertech Techshade, instead. They have two versions. One with the cutout and one without the cutout. Just don't like the fact that it rolls up instead of folding up.
