Sun shades? - Benzworld.org

Hi,
I'm about to embark on a long trip to Florida with the family. I don't want the sun beating on my kid's faces so I'm looking to buy an inexpensive aftermarket sun shade. What are my options? (short of tinting the windows).
Thanks

sergio, just buy the window tint they sell at pep boys, cut it to fit and stick it on the window. don't use water and you can remove it at any time. it doesn't look great, but it sure does the trick.

I bought the nearly impossible to find rear side window sunshades from Caliber Motors in Anaheim CA. Steve with MBenzNL was able to get them too.

has extra wide suction cup roll up ones with nice scenes for the kids to look at.
You will not be happy with the rolls of tint it yourself,it looks like crap and will ruin your whole Karma.

Yeah, go to Baby's R Us and and get the roll up sunshades that suction cup to your windows. They work great.

Thanks for the replies. I think I'm going to stick with the suction cup style. As an added bonus, the kids won't be allowed to roll the windows down.

csoodjinda..I'm surprised! this one actually looks decent, if only they had the sides for the rear door windows to complete the look.

Don't get the ones that roll up. Get the ones with suction cups on each corner. The ones that roll are a hazard in a crash.
