I'm searching for the best rear-door window shades.

My wife and I just welcomed a newborn boy, and with the sunlight blitzing his little eyeballs through the rear-windows' factory tint, I need a solution.

I REALLY like my BMW 330i's in-door window shades and rear-window shade, and want to find something that fits the 450h like a glove (vs the cheap, suction-cupped Barbie-colored shades at the local kiddo store), ya know?

thanks in advance for your thoughts,

This is an Australian product, but it is effective and doesn't look tacky.

It's available on Ebay or direct:

Shevron Window Shades

thanks,

Alright,

I purchased the window sox and they're fantastic; exactly what I was looking for.

- the fit is great, unlike non-custom devices that fit half the window
- they significantly decrease the amount of light coming into the vehicle
- they look sleek: no suction cups falling off or looking tacky; it's just a black sheen

I highly recommend this product. it's hot as hades in Australia, and this is proof they are seriously good at manufacturing auto sun shades.

any pics? wondering how the sock will hold up against the opening/closing of the doors on a long term basis?

the window sox looks like a great product! however, i would probably just add a layer of aftermarket tint to provide better protection from the sun.
