Default Kiddies Sun shade

Could do with some help...

Will take delivery of my PPP'd WRX Wagon in about 4 weeks. (Can't wait - have been confined to a particularly anaemic Audi A4 2.0 for last year after changing jobs and giving up my MY99)

I am thinking of either tinting the rear side windows or getting a sun shade to protect young sproglets eyes. Now, Winnie the Pooh & Tigger are all very nice, but not exactly the image I wish to project, so are there any sun shades with a vaguely Subaru / Prodrive / Sti theme?

If not, then I had probably better go with the tinting route and to hell with the cops...

Would welcome any help

Halfrauds do some slightly more tasteful 'roller blinds' in black mesh, worth a look.

i had the same problem, and tried the roller blinds. they are a crap fit, and the sun light gets in all around them. best just to go for the tinting from the start, i know my 8 month old daughter dont screw her face up so much now with the sunlight.

Best to tint the rear side windows as none of the blinds available block the sun very well.
Tried a couple of shades / blinds on my MY04 and they were pants, side windows now tinited.
My 8 month old son is now not blinded by the sun, next step is tinting the rear window so the UV doesn't get the top / back of his napper!

Tinting it is I guess.

Passed a PPP'd Wagon in Crossgates in Leeds at 9 this morning - boy I can't wait to get that burble.....

Thanks for your answers so far!!

Default Shader Babes

Get in touch with www.cheekyrascals.co.uk. An Australian company have developed some specially shaped window shades. This company has all of the stock for the UK I'm told (and may have sold out already).

See if they can do anything for you. We have a lot of the Shader babe stuff and it's good.
