Car Sun shade

What have you/do you use for the rear passenger window?

Have heard lots of different horror stories about some brands!

Depends on your car. We have a subaru wagon and the store bought ones didn't fit. We ended up buying the generic mesh one from Supercheap, and sewing it to fit the shape of the car. it came with stickon velcro attachments which melted as soon as the sun warmed the car, and as the subaru has no frame round the window we have it held on with little silver bulldog type clips.

It works a treat. DS is rear facing so some sun comes in the boot windows, but they are tinted a bit so its not too bad.

We used to use the window sock type ones too, but got sick of them fading and leaving sticky residue on the car door, so gave in and got the rear windows tinted. Way easier.

I bought Window Sox from Kiwibaby for both our cars and have found them great. They are a bit more pricey but they make them specifically to different makes, models and year of car. The best thing is you can put the window down with them on as they fit over the door frame.

We got sick of the velcro sticky things coming off the car with our window socks so bought ones from outlook that clip to the bottom of the car door instead. Is much easier to see through when driving too which is a bonus. Bought them off the aussie website - we got a pair and that was cheaper than getting 1 here in the baby shops, but still not cheap.

We have one of those sock type ones too, but have found recently when it rains the door handle fills up with water and the seat get wet (thankfully the carseat is in the middle seat so that hasn't got wet), I'm so annoyed.

Will probably have to go back to using one of those ugly stick on type ones again.

Hi I do use kids car sunshade to shields baby from the heat and glare of the sun. It makes baby sleep in warm, bright conditions much easer while travelling.
