Baby window shades recommendation?

[gnaark]

Hey guys,

My baby hates the sun and I’m looking for a baby shade recommendation for the rear side windows.

What do you guys use that fit well and doesn’t look terrible?

Nothing will work as well as tint. We have factory window covers on our Volkswagen and they still let just enough light in the smack them in the face. Had to get it limo tinted.

They sell some cheap-o plastic back/cling ones that worked good for my kids in our previous car.

Just gotta make sure they fit since that's the first result on amazon.

So I have tint on the rear windows but it’s not enough and I don’t want more tint just a temporary solution.

If all you want is something a little darker during the day, they work. But you get plenty of leakage around the edges. I have that exact brand (XL size) for my CR-V. It works good enough for everything except when sun is low on the horizon. But my 2-year old screams bloody murder at the setting sun during road trips.

If you need total black out, then some sort of curtains are probably the best approach. (It will look stupid though.) I don't take enough trips to worry about it, and it won't be long before the 2 year old is smart enough to turn his head, close his eyes, and just go to sleep.

He also hates (for no good reason) if I leave the sun roof cover open, so he's going to have a field day with the panoramic glass ceiling of the MME.
