Abstract

Abstract A vehicle body sunshade includes a foundation board having a transverse groove adjacent one end portion thereof to provide a reduced thickness portion. The board is covered with padding and an outer covering in a conventional manner. Stitching through the reduced thickness portion of the board breaks the board at the groove. The stitching and padding and covering cooperate to provide a hinge connecting the end portion to the remainder of the sunshade.
