I was so happy to get the BMW Climate Cover:
I was so happy until lunch when a gentle breeze tossed it back over the front and I pulled it back. Only it caught on a windshield wiper. My mistake, I pulled it closer to disentangle it only the wiper came off! Then the wiper arm smacked the windshield and spider cracks. I should have dropped what was in my hands and manually disentangled the cover.
Thursday I have a $600 appointment to replace the window. Tuition in the school of hard knocks. I will continue to use the climate cover, I live in North Alabama and the steering wheel get TOO HOT. But I'll be careful to not pull on it if stuck on the wiper. In contrast, the Toyota wipers almost require hand tools to take off with positive locking tabs.

- Covers outside - this prevents solar heat from passing twice through the wndshield glass
- covers side windows - the foldout ones cover only the windshield
- may help snow removal - if not frozen to surface
