Snap Shades (1 Viewer)

[DaveK]

Loving my snap shades for the front windows. At 90 degrees outside with the front windshield covered and the sides the cabin stays significantly cooler during the day as it sits for 10-12 hours in the sun.

And, I can leave them in and see out with no issues during the day.

Oh, nothing to install in the window frame….they simply snap in and snap out (magnetic) in about 3 seconds.

Tint in NY isn’t legal and a pain to get a waiver for so these are incredible.

I like the idea of them but they seem incredibly overpriced for what basically amounts to some fabric, spring steel, and magnets. If you want coverage for the whole truck its $400+. Thats bananas.

I won’t argue with that they are expensive but we’ve already proven to buy expensive stuff. That piece of plastic that guy is charging $70 for the stick on sun glasses holder is insanely expensive - but he’s selling a billion of them.

These are nice. She sits outside alot in the CA sun so these will be helpful. Thank you.

Thanks again for the tip! I just ordered the front ones...The back windows have rolling shades on my Luxury including tinted glass...

Where do you have to mount the magnets - in the window frame?

You dont mount any magnets. The magnets are in the shade and just "attach" onto the window frame

 

[Bluegill]

That’s pretty cool. Do the shades roll up or fold over or something for storage, or are they always in the shape and size of the window? The website doesn’t describe them much.

 

[DaveK]

The sort of fold into a tiny little circle.

Spot on.

Maybe I missed it Dave..could you show us one of them folded up? Thanks.

 

[DaveK]

Even better!!

THANKS!

Very cool, ordering some of these now. I definitely could use one for the big rear window - I work under the tailgate out in the sun and I'd appreciate the extra shade. Looks like you have to install little tabs for the magnets to click onto but that's no big deal in the cargo area.

Thanks for the video! Is there a storage bag too?

There actually is...a nice one too. If you want to see it, LMK and I will go "snap" a photo.

Probably because the side windows have the metal door frames and the rear window has only the plastic surround.

Thanks! No need to as I ordered the front ones. I just wanted to get confirmation. Not a deal breaker anyway
