I’m really disappointed

I’m really disappointed. The rear door shades fit badly for the x3 because the one piece shade bulges around the pillar in the door window .

Excellent Privacy and Fit, But Instructions Need Improvement

I bought these shades for my Land Rover Discovery 4, and they fit almost like a glove! Installation was fairly easy, though I needed a YouTube video to figure out the best approach, as the provided instructions were poorly printed and not very clear – definitely an area for improvement. My car’s rear windows are already tinted from the factory, but adding these shades makes it nearly impossible to see through, giving excellent privacy. Even if you don’t have children or a pet, these are great for stopping prying eyes from looking into the back of the car. Plus, it's legal, so no worries about dark tint fines or removal. Overall, a fantastic purchase for privacy and security!

Poor Support

Shambolic company. Clips wouldn't fit, explained to the company that I had previously ordered their shades but they came with different clips which did fit. I was sent a YouTube video which didn't help (not replacement clips). Then when requesting to return them after giving up, the company went silent on me. Avoid

Effective shades

Had the shades (full side and rear set) a while before fitting them but once I got round to it it turned out easier than I was expecting. There is an element of intuition involved but combined with the ‘how to’ videos and leaflet it was OK. The shades are a great fit once on, and way more effective than the cheap ‘off the shelf’ ones that usually only cover part of the window and usually drop off after a while. They do obscure the view out quite significantly so extra caution needed using rear view mirror and reverse manoeuvres. However would definitely recommend.

Couldn't be happier

Delivered in excellent timing, could not have been easier to install. One section of the rubber trim was too thick to allow the clip to just snap on, so I folded it back on itself and it worked fine. If you are unable to figure out how to fit these blinds you shouldn't be operating a car.

Disappointing

After having these fitted to my C-Class for the last month. They are hugely disappointing. The shades are an excellent fix and shape, however, the lack of metal clips means that the shades fall out constantly.
When fixed, I'm unable to open my rear passager windows or they will immediately fall out.
The rear window is also falls out consistently.

I have since removed them from my car as they were becoming more of distraction from driving, than offering any form of shade.

Super easy to fit

Quick efficient service. Super easy to fit.

Very professional looking with the carry bag for storage if/when the wee one outgrows it, can safely store away, keeping it clean for the next time.

Would recommend

Reasonably priced, dispatched/arrived promptly, easy fitting instructions, tool and clips provided, much better than the cheaper alternative they replaced. Only bug bear is you can't buy the rear quarter glass seperate so you either have the rear door glass or the full set of rear door glass, rear quarter glass and boot glass.

Great shades

Good quality shades.

I bought a set of rear shades for my new Mercedes GLE hoping to get rid of those awful stick on shades for my kids. They arrived only three days after purchase so super quick delivery and the shades are such good quality that I cannot fault them. I’m unsure what clips are mentioned in previous reviews but I received metal clips with my shades and I can’t see them snapping any time soon, they are solid. Overall they are super easy to fit, look great and function just as expected. The windows can be opened and they fit the whole window to avoid any sun being shone on my 3 month old.

Would highly recommend!

The product helps me manage my over active dog by minimising her view of people who approach the car or who are walking along a path while I dawdle in the on the road. Not as easy to fit as shown on the video but I was able to push the clips into place

Extremely Quick Service

From order to delivery extremely fast ordered Friday night (after closure) recieved Wednesday morning and fitted in 10mins.
These blinds give excellent coverage and are so simple to install. The only critisism is that a couple of extra clips might be handy.
All in all great service.

Good quality shades

Good quality shades, fitted perfectly!

Used the installation videos online, they could do with being a little bit slower and clearer view of the fittings but once you've done one the rest are straight forward

Concept is good

Concept is good, fitted sun shades for your vehicle.
However fitting was easy, but quality of fittings poor and don’t stand the test of time.

Impossible to get hold of customer services, resorted to using the power of my bank to get a refund after item failed.

Did manage to cut out some sun for 6 weeks before breaking.
Don’t open windows while driving, despite the blurb on the product pages.

Second time I've bought from car shades. Shades are total fit for specific vehicle not only are they functional but enhance the look of your car. Ordering is easy and shades arrived within 2 days a much cheaper alternative to tints.

Top quality product, quick and easy to fit, (turn off child locks)!

Fit perfectly, I am so impressed with the shades I cant explain enough how good they are and the difference they have made in the back of the car. My Mrs was going to buy one of them cheap universal stick on ones, she said she glad she didnt and loves them. IMO they are well worth the little extra money for that touch of class and easily fitted, although I would recommend turning the child locks off before you fit them if you are going to lock yourself in the back of car while you fit them, I had to slide out over the front seats. Other than that I would recommend, top quality product and service.

Good shades

I recently bought shades for my Kia Sportage 23 from Car Shades, and I'm impressed. Delivery was fast, and the shades came with a carry bag and tools for easy installation. It took me just 10 minutes to install them, and they fit perfectly without any gaps. They provide excellent window coverage. Overall, a great purchase. Highly recommend for Kia Sportage 23 owners or anyone in need of reliable car shades.

Stay shade in another way ;)

The shades are not perfect fit despite the fact these are made to particular make and model. I have followed the enclosed fitment instruction the material doesn't fit nicely as it waves. Extremally disappointed with the look. The shades are not worth the price. Furthermore the customer service is non existence. I contacted the customer service for help and advice via email and never received any response. Then I requested to return the shades for a refund and guess what no response either. Very poor product and customer service. Do not bother yourself with this option. Stay shade in another way ;)

Excellent quality and perfect fit

I bought these for a Dacia Logan estate. My dogs travel in a Lintran dog box but I wanted extra shading and had struggled to find anything suitable until I came across Car Shades. The quality really is excellent and the shades fit absolutely perfectly, I was also pleasantly surprised to find that driver's visibility was not unduly affected. Nice to see a quality British made product, worth every penny.
