Sun shade for baby

Hi,

I've been looking for a good solution to keep the sun off of the baby - need to cover the rear passenger window, the side window behind that, and half of the back window. Has anybody found any elegantly fitting solutions for this? The panda bear sunshade that is there right now just doesn't do the car justice..

Thanks for any thoughts..

Hi
If it's the rear windows, why not get them tinted?
That wont break the lines of the car.
In UK you can have any percentage of tint in the rear windows.
Just the fronts you have to be very careful.

We just have a pink stick on type that works ok until you accidentally lower all the windows with the key fob!

there are some clip in shades that pretty much stay in all time and you can lower the windows whilst fitted, search on here for them somebody fitted them At work

That might be the only elegant solution.

Oh yes, she has some. But it turns out that they are brilliant as a toy, which means that they stay on her head for about 20 seconds before being taken off, chewed, shaken, shoved in to various orifices , and then thrown on the floor.

Sun Shades

Her Ladyship does not have these fitted, but other Fl2 owners do and have recommended them in the past. I'm surprised no member has flagged this up to you Marklad Shocked

Thanks will order a set now. For somebody whose mechanical skill extends not much further than replacement of lightbulbs, does anybody know if it is a particularly fiddly job?
