My wife found one at autozone that was a roll with the little holes that adheres to the plexiglas pretty well. It only works on one side (not one side of the aircraft).  

We just used them across the country and seemed to do the job well enough.

Comes in a box that's probably 2x2x12.  Boxes long gone.

Effective, but not as shady as I'd like under some circumstances. Easy to use and reliable. Got them at Air Venture several years ago; have not seen them advertised anywhere. You might need to call Rozen directly? About $10 each as I recall?

They adhere by static and are very effective, but small. The combination of vinyl strips and the Rozen shades work very well for my IV-P.
