Sunnies Backseat Car Window Sun Shade for Baby (2-Pack) - Black

I've bought two sets of these now. First for my car and then a couple of months later for my spouse's. The size is great and covers alot of space to keep the sun out of my little one's eyes. (Our windows have factory tint but that's not enough). In fact I only put one up at first for the baby's side of the car and then my older child saw how well they worked and asked for them on the other side of the car too. As soon as we got the new car, we were told by the same child that we NEEDED to get the clings for that car too :). I had previously used the suction cup kind (which kept getting ripped when I "accidentally" opened the rear window and then used the kind that clipped over the top of the window edge (didn't like that b/c it rattled when the car was in motion). These stick well and stay put when the window is opened and closed - which kids apparently love to do - often. I did read the other reviews and made sure to clean the windows well before putting them on and did so on a warm day so I had no problem w/them adhering to the window. It gets pretty cold here in the winter so I'm anxious to see if they stay put, but for now I think they are pretty fabulous!UPDATE AUGUST 2015: One window started to peel up at the bottom. Since it was no longer a smooth edge it catches when I put the window down and rumbles up. Disappointed in that, but at this time the issue is just occurring on 1 out of 4 windows at this point.UPDATE JULY 2016: 3 out of 4 windows got caught up in the window opening and either tore, crinkled to the point of not being able to be used or just stopped sticking. The last is holding on by a thread. I wouldn't consider these a long term solution for keeping the sun off my kids in the backseat.

This works well if you install it correctly, which anyone can do with a little patience & care.I wanted larger shades, as I have large rear windows. These appear to fit that requirement. In fact I ended up putting both of them side by side on the window to create 1 larger panel. If I get time I will upload photo's to show what I did.They arrive nice & flat, on a stiff backing sheet - this is good, no wrinkles.First, CLEAN THE WINDOW PROPERLY!!!I used Windex, you can use something similar that leaves no smears or residue.Use either a lint free, clean cloth with no fabric softener on it, or a microfiber cloth, or an untreated paper towel (HINT: Kitchen towels are treated & will leave smears. The paper hand towels that you use in workplace or public bathrooms are not treated & do a fantastic job & do not leave any smears.)Once the window is nice & clean, I am assuming that you have already decided where you want to put the shade.I then sprayed a VERY light mist of windex (or your chosen cleaner) onto the window & made sure that there was a very light coat of it on the glass.GENTLY, peel up one corner of the sun shade, there is a tab on one corner to make this easier, try really hard to not wrinkle or stretch the shade, it is thin plastic, so try hard. Digging your fingernails into it will damage it, so be careful. I simply rolled the backing paper back on itself until I got a tab of the screen popping up & then very slowly peeled the shade free from the backing paper. Do not try to rip it off quickly, it isn't a band aid, peel slowly & the shade will not stretch unevenly.Align the screen how you want it to lay on the glass (Landscape, portrait etc.)Then lay one of the top corners onto the glass that should still have the light mist coat of fluid on it.Press gently but firmly to anchor the corner & then gently lay the screen onto the glass in a rolling manner.As you roll it onto the glass, use the microfiber cloth (not another soft one, not paper towel) & rub gently just behind where you are rolling it, sweeping side to side, to drive out the air bubbles. Keep doing this as you roll it all down onto the glass.If you find you need to reposition the screen, it is easy to gently pull back & unpeel it, adjust slightly & roll back down.If you are just a hair off, this is why you have the fluid on the glass. You can use the flats of your hands to spread the pressure & gently twist or push the screen a few mm on the glass to get it to exactly where you want - I did this as I put 2 side by side, to minimize the line of the gap between them.If you do all of this & look at the window from both sides, you will have the screen installed properly & with no air bubbles.Honestly, to do it, or to do it right is purely a matter of time & care & I think that the added time to do it right is only about 10 more minutes.No I am not an installer, no I have not done this often before (I have done something similar once on 1 small window), I just paid attention to how I did it. If you do the same, you will have something that looks good & does not look terrible with the big air bubbles showing from the outside like so many people have with badly installed screens.I paid for my screens & I was not reimbursed for this review, I just want to help out, as there are many reviews out there from other people on products that I have read & found have helped me.

Bought these to outbid the tractor because there are two times a day the sun is absolutely blinding and the rest of the time it shines in and melts the ice in your drink. They worked well for the first few weeks, but then the got to falling off and it became a fight to keep them in the windows. Yes, I cleaned the Windows thoroughly every time. Made no difference. I do t know if it was just too much heat or too much jarring or just not the best out there. I do realize they aren't for tractors, but I thought it was worth a shot. I will say that I did get my $$ worth out of them if you take into consideration the number of hours spent on said tractor. I guess the my were alright.

These shades (2) arrived flat and in a much bigger box than I was anticipating. Installation was simple enough: peel & stick to the window. I guess I should've made sure they were actually on because later the next day my wife told me that one of them fell off. Air bubbles seem to come up frequently, so maybe that's why it came off initially.Does it let light in? Yes...however it does it's job of shading your child.Can you see through it? Yes...however if the angle that you're looking through it is too sharp (for example, if you're driving and turn your head over your left shoulder to get in the left lane), it's harder to see through.I love the fact that you can just set it and forget about it. You don't have to worry about it falling off when you roll down the window as these things go down with the window with no problem. I have a different set of window shades to compare and their outer rim is so thick that they can't go down/up with the window without coming off.
