Wife just called me up "WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN ORDERING NOW"

So I guess I have some shades at home waiting for me

Mines arrived and fitted Bent one of the side on the first attempt (didnt read the instructions) pushed it back and its fine.

Backs went in a treat and so far seem to meet in the middle with no gaps, not sure if once I get going they will shift out of place.

All in all look pretty good

 

[LEE69]

Nice one.

After 4 years service to me, my 55 FR is now going at the end of the month. Looking to sell my blinds so the dealer doesnt get them - looking for £50t, PM me. You will need to pick up from Worksop/Sheffield though as I dont want to risk getting them damaged in transit.

Whoops - just realised I shouldnt have posts a for sale in this thread - I have submitted a "for sale" which hopefully will apear soon.

**UPDATE - Sold **

Mine haven't been out of the car since fitting them

 

[Rauer]

Can you drive with the windows down with them in place safely??

 

[LEE69]

Yeah they don't interfere with the windows.

[Funkyfin2000]

You are spot on there dude!

 

[Rauer]

Got 2 myself mate !!

 

[Funkyfin2000]

wicked, my black labradors nose keeps greasing up the back window! Mind you will keep greasing up the blinds !LOL!

 

[LEE69]

These won't stop it as they are a mesh.

 

[Funkyfin2000]

well it will stop him puttinghis flat nose against it and smearing, will help a little anyway!

Are they wipeable? or washable?

 

[LEE69]

Can be wiped i'd say they were a cotton mesh tbh.

 

[Rauer]

Got mine fitted today !, rear is a really tight fit!! Fits well though no bowing here!!

I'm looking at getting tints for my LC to mainly keep the sun & UV off my baby boy. On reading many tint threads on here I discovered this thread and these car shades.

For those that have the car shades, what are the benefits over tints and also what were your reasons for not having tints and going with these instead?

TIA
