Default Sun shield

A while back, The AOPA was providing to its members, sun shields, consisting of small rectangular pieces of opaque plastic that would cling to the inside of the canopy, providing adjustable sun blocking. Unfortunately, they no longer have them available. Does anyone have a source for them or a similar product?
I have a number of them, however, over time, they seem to have lost the ability to cling and are no longer effective.

I may be wrong, but if you wash the ones you have they may get their static cling back.....

Often times washing old ones does renew them, but if not, new ones can be purchased in most any baby department (for use in car windows for babys in car seats, etc.).
Our local Target stores have them.
