Default Rear Sun Shade

Since I took off my window tint, I am desperate for a rear sun shade (just the back glass not the doors) like the ones that come in the new Lexus models. Where can I get a nice mesh rear sun shade that looks factory? Doesn't necessarily have to be a power rear sun shade just one that looks factory and not like it came from Walmart. Any input is very much appreciated.

Contact Gill 77i9... He installed a power rear shade. It pretty much covers the whole rear window. I've seen some on ebay that are manually retractable with a little installtion required for clips into the roof liner. Might want to get measurements of the window to help narrow down the search. I've been looking as well ... dont want suction cups on the window.

Thanks MikeFoxx. Do you happen to have a link to the manual retractable from ebay? I searched on ebay couldn't find a thing besides the suction cup ones.

Lemme check... I had it saved under "watchin" but deleted it.

There is one for $29 that is made for a 2006-2011 vw passat. U can search the measurements of that rear window and compare it to yours. I was considering that as well. As long as within the same specs you should be able to use one for another car. The universal one i mentioned earlier fit our rear window and the seller is from LA. Still lookin though

Would they be a direct fit or custom and have to modify a few things?
