Any reason to think the Covercraft sun shades won't fit the '13? I'm looking to have one when the car gets here, since it will be in the depths of Summer. The websites aren't selling one that fits the '13, but since there are no discernible changes to the structure of the interior from '12 to '13, I'm assuming I will be able to fit one of the '12's in my '13 just fine. Thoughts?

I would indeed think the same thing. Perhaps you could call Covercraft directly? I swear someone on here just bought the same shades for his 13..... Can't remember his name.

The greenhouse hasn't changed since 2005. That's why I was able to use the one I bought for my 06 on my 11. Yes it will work.

I ordered my covercraft sunshade from Autoanything.com and you can add the nice vinyl bag for $5.12. I paid $49.99 for the shade...then stupid CA tax bumped me up to what the rest of you guys are paying.

man... I should have done this. I regret not having a cover... although I just put the shade in the back seat. Maybe it's ok.

I think if you still want just the cover you can get it from Autoanything with free shipping.

What I find interesting is that if you add the sunshade to your cart after checking the box to add the bag, you can then delete the sunshade and have just the bag in your cart for the discounted price of $5.12. Do it!

Here's a link - don't know if if it will work.

I decided to call and find out directly and as was mentioned by someone else, the frame/windshield is identical for the purposes of the shade and the '12 will fit the '13 as well.

alright folks... I am reviving this old thread, because I just received my THIRD Covercraft sunshade, this time in Red Metallic, to go on our Black Odyssey I also ordered 3 storage bags total, one for each of them (silver shade for Tori, blue shade for Marilyn). What a perfect fit. God, we love these sunshades. My wife is happy now since she can keep her minivan cool in the sun

I ordered one for my '13 based on your recommendation and haven't been disappointed They are great quality, worth the higher price than the universal ones.

I couldn't agree more. I have been using my sunshades everyday, in this insane heat. They have not only protected the dash from those killer rays, but they have kept the interior noticeably cooler than even with my old shades...esp in this 100 degree heat.

On top of that, even with the everyday folding and unfolding, placing, removing, etc.... the shades have held up very well, durability-wise. Kudos to Covercraft. Highly recommend these things.

Agreed. I just got mine and it's totally worth the extra $20-$30 for a quality piece like that vs the universal ones.

Thanks for the info. I just ordered my covercraft sunshade through Amazon. The sunshades I've been buying at auto stores disintergrate around the edges leaving a white sort of dust powder on the dash.

Some states don't require them. I was a Texas resident who moved to indiana. I was thrilled that the state does not require any stickers in the window. Best of all, no front license plate either!
