The quality of the shades are great. However, the customer service has not been. I was unable to find my model so ordered a very similar model hoping they would fit. They didn't (my fault). But when I wrote to customer service querying the replacement model, I'm not getting a response. I asked "will this come with a shade for the rear window or just rear passenger windows." I was told "if the product name is full set then it's a full set, otherwise it'll be called a rear set." I responded saying "the product name is set of four, not full set nor rear set." No response. I waited a week then followed up. No response. Well, you've lost another sale there then.

Hi Dan We are sorry that you didn't get the right level of information from us to assist you. If you do still require assistance, please do send what vehicle you have to reviews@carshades.co.uk and we will advise what windows are covered by a Rear Passenger Door set. Thank you Car Shades

Rear passenger blinds fit well in frame but clips become unstuck from sticky foam pad and fall out (happened couple of times). Side windows in boot blinds are ok. The rear window blinds had to jam them between plastic boot trim and glass to make them fit as seem to big for the frame and the plastic clips absolutely useless, couldn’t get them to fit in any position and the instructions/pictures are diabolical (I can work most things out) and I don’t like the line down the middle of the window because it comes in two half's. If I purchased again I would only get rear passenger blinds.

Previously or deferred these are they’re far superior to any other products, orders my my BMW F31 Touring a little disappointed at the rear door window fitments in the way they don’t lock in like on my previous car meaning they can very easy drop out if the window is fully wound down.

Almost perfect fit (but not quite). Also not enough clips to hold it in place if the window rolls down completely.

Car shades are great, however fitting instructions and pictures could be clearer - I'm not certain mine are fitted correctly, but they're in.

Our second set of shades - first set for our previous car (Skoda Octavia) worked really well. However the shades for our new car (MG ZS EV) have not been so good. The stick on clips for the small windows by rear seats came off within 24 hours and the clips for the opening rear windows caught on the windows as they were closed bending the frame of the shade. This may Be a consequence of the design of the MG but not entirely satisfactory.

Product is great Instructions are terrible, poor quality pictures and can’t see any details had no idea which way round clip went, still not sure installed correctly. Online video is great if that’s the clips you have but mine was different.

Overall pretty happy with these. the side shades both on the rear doors and quarter windows are great; no complaints at all. Coming to the rear screen shades I’ve found a few issues. The frames of the shades are quite stiff and appear to be slightly too big for the window aperture. This results in the shades trying to return to shape (flat) in a compound curve situation. This pulls the clips out of the plastic moulding and the stress / force put on the adhesive clips easily overpowers them and they fly off every time I open the rear hatch. The two halves of the shades have to cross over each other in the centre of the window or they don’t fit at all. The force put on the two top metal clips have pulled the plastic moulding out of its mounts also. I now can’t open the rear hatch independently of the boot as the shades fall out, making the handy feature of the split window opening unusable. I seems I need another 4/6 adhesive retainers to run along the underside of the window to have a chance of them being secured in place.

Hi James - we are sorry you are having a few issues with your tailgate Car Shades, we will get some more adhesive clips out to you asap. In terms of helping to get them to fit better, please can you check that the bottom corners of the Car Shades are pressed firmly into the trim which may require a bit of pressure to push them into place which usually then aligns the Car Shades so that meet flush in the middle. If this doesn't help, if you can send any images of the fitting you have to reviews@carshades.co.uk and we'll take a look to see if we can offer any more advice. Thank you Car Shades

Great car shades, but shocking fit for the opening windows, and the metal clips supplied end up damaging the internal window trims when you try and fit them. They also don’t fit size wise very well! Not impressed! As for the shades for the fixed windows, they are an excellent fit and well thought out.

Hi Stephen - we are sorry that your Car Shades for the rear passenger windows are not a good fit. Would it be possible to send us some pictures of the whole of the window so we can see the fit and how the clips are positioned on the frame so we can see how we can help resolve the issue you're facing? Please send any images to reviews@carshades.co.uk Thank you Car Shades

The shades fit the rear windows perfectly and are of reasonably good quality. They also arrived fairly quickly. As another reviewer observes, the fitting instructions provided simply aren’t detailed enough given the cost of the product, plus those in the box aren’t entirely consistent with those online. As a result, one of the clips came off while my wife was driving, landing somewhere near our baby and never to be seen again. In fairness to the customer services team, I’m told that replacement clips are on the way to me free of charge, which is greatly appreciated. As it’s unclear whether the clip came off due to its design or because I fitted it incorrectly, I hope the problem isn’t repeated!

The shades are a great sun blocking solution with a newborn, however, the clips to attach the shades to the windows are awful quality. They snap or fall off. This has made me very nervous as the clips could fall into my baby's car seat. For the price of the shades the clips to attach need to be vastly improved.

Bmw x5 e70. Let down by the poor instructions on how to fit, the images are not clear and took me over an hour to figer out the best way to secure the shades and I am a automotive technician. I thought the clips provided are generic and not vehicle specific. This is the only let down, these shades are very well made and high quality, I would 100% buy again and recommend. Let down by an easy fix otherwise 5 stars.

Blinds are of high quality however two of the CL-M05 clips were broken so the blinds are not attached well. Also the lever that was advertised in your video was not supplied. If possible I’d like replacement CL-M05 and lever please.

Unfortunately they didn't fit as they should have and as mine were attached with sticky pads we couldn't adjust.

The shades are ok… i would not describe them as premium quality. However, they are not poor quality. They are tailor fit but not to the best possible fitment. The clips are rubbish and they need some sort of instruction with each clip labelled. All in all a 6/10 !

A good solution for window shades, but the fit is not as good as I had hoped and I am regularly popping them back in. The “shade” it creates is good, but we bought for a newborn and it is probably not strong enough for her.

This was my 2nd set of car shades , bought for my 2010 Mercedes’ A Class . The 1st set purchased for my 2007 A class fitted fine . This set works fine on the side windows and rear windows , but the rear quarter window covers don’t fit well and fall off soon after fitting , despite multiple attempts to refit . Very frustrating .
