Intro-Tech Sun Shade for 2009 Fit Sport.

I just bought the Intro-Tech Automotive Windshield Sun Shade, Part. no. HD-50 for my 2009 Fit Sport. It fits great, works great, and you can stow it out of sight under the rear seats (behind the seat support bars.) Just roll it up fairly tight, put the velcro strap around it, lift up the driver's side rear seat and slide it behind the passenger side seat support, then let the seat back down.
I bought mine from AutoAnything.com for $39.95. It came in the mail 6 days after I placed the order.

Love this "Spring-fold" Sunshade

Out here in broiling hot, sun-filled Arizona I've used these twist & fold "spring" sunshades for years and, amazingly found one just the right size for that huge expanse of windshield in my new 2010 Fit. Another great feature is that a twist-of-the-wrist-and-fold easily gets it down to a size which allows inserting it right into the driver's side-door pocket. How convenient is that?

You might want to check it out yourself on Amazon.com:

Reporting back... I purchased the sunshade philyc suggested, it is PERFECT for the 2009-2010 Honda Fit!!! The thing is really HUGE, and covers the entire windshield! It folds to a rather small 'circle', which fits in the seat pockets facing the rear row...

AWESOME! And VERY CHEAP!!!

Just wanted to add, I purchased this super jumbo sunshade from Amazon for $13 and it's large enough to cover the expanse of glass that is the front windshield. The measurements are 31x38. (photo included in the Amazon product page)
You do need to use the visors to keep it up and due to positioning, the rear view mirror will be covered as well.

I preferred this model with the two individual pieces over the one linked by philyc b/c its easier for me to fold.

A similar one can also be found at walmart for a few dollars less.
