Zone Tech Side Window Cling On Sun Shades- 2-Pack Mesh Car Pop-Up Non Suction Cups Needed Sun-Shield

This is a great, light-weight shade that reduces glare while still providing good visibility. When I have my dogs in the car, I actually use a couple more of them to fully cover my side windows and keep the sun off the dogs (yes, they extend forward to the front windows when I do that but the suction cups are strong enough to hold them in place even where they bend to go over the door posts and that just provides more sun protection for the dogs. Suction cups: these are the same suction cups that are used on a variety of auto sun screens and they have generated much discussion whenever they are used. I've actually reviewed them in detail for another sun screen - here's what I said: THE SUCTION CUPS ARE JUST FINE: they ARE lightweight - but then only have to hold up a couple of ounces and they do that quite well; they ARE extremely flexible - but this is a GOOD thing as it enables you to get a better seal when you put them on and makes them easier to remove when you take them off. You do, however, have to do as others have suggested and heat them up in hot water to eliminate any creases that may have appeared during shipping and storage before using them for the first time. Here's what I did: Heat a cup of water until it's VERY hot. I just put a coffee cup of hot water in the microwave for a minute and it was fine. The water doesn't have to be boiling but it won't hurt the suction cups if it is. Put the suction cups in the water for a minute or so. Again, it doesn't hurt to leave them longer but you need to make sure that you leave them in long enough for them to get warm all the way through. Take them out and press them firmly onto a flat surface. Make sure that the cups are completely flattened and don't have any creases in them. Leave them like this until they cool completely. Put the suction cups on the screens and they will hold very well. Mine have been up in my car for four days now and are still firmly attached. Caveat: some people have mentioned the suction cups don't hold when it's cold. I live in Texas so I don't have much opportunity to test that but I believe it's likely to be true: if the suction cups are cold and stiff, they won't flex enough to seal completely. My guess is that if you held them in front of a heater vent for a minute or two or even just held them in your hands long enough to warm them up, they'd hold. Or at least they'd hold as long as the window isn't really cold. At any rate, once the car interior warms up, they should be fine.

I ordered several different brands of inexpensive sun shades recently, and when they came in I realized they all had very similar, flimsy black suction cups. 90% of them were completely warped and unusable. 3 out of 4 suction cups on this product looked bent in half. Fortunately you can fix them! Bring a small pot of water to a boil, take it off the heat (very important), then dump the suction cups into the water. After about a minute you should see they have returned to their original shape. Pull them out and place them suction cup down gently on a flat surface like a countertop. Don't squish them down yet - Let them start to cool for 10 seconds then slowly press each one down a little at a time until you have full suction. Pop them up after a couple minutes and you're ready to install in your car. If your cup is still warped, repeat the process with the water. I think the shade could stand to be a couple inches wider, but overall I'm pleased, and the price was dirt cheap ($6-7)

The shade is the right size but needs to be see through.

When I read the reviews, there were a lot that said that the suction cups don't work. I thought, maybe their windows were not clean when they used them? I will get the product anyway. Well, the suction cups on this are so cheaply made. They are flimsy plastic cups that do not grip onto anything! The shade itself is nice but I wish it would block more sun than it does. I plan to sew some shear black fabric over what is already there to block more sun and buy good heavy duty suction cups to replace the black plastic nothings (they don't work so they are not suction cups!) If this item was a more expensive item I would definitely return it, but I don't like the hassle of returns so I plan to make it work.

I do like how dark they are. I think I overpaid at $12 but meh.. They are warped at the bottom which really annoys me because it hasn’t worked itself out yet after several days. They don’t cling well unless it’s hot outside then yeah the cling works great. At night however, you have to hope it’ll stay up if at all. They are small so don’t expect it to offer much privacy but it does keep most prying eyes off your stuff. I mean you’d have to be a peeping Tom to really get a good look at what’s in my car so I do like how dark they are. And they do help with the extreme sun hitting my cooler that is in my front seat. I’m not amazed but they have some usefulness.

We live in AZ and the sun is like a laser beam here. Its hot and bright but this dims it down and puts you in the shade. Good fit, easy of use, and protection. Folds up small into a bag and tucks away. Works as advertised would get again, well worth it.

They didn't stick well to the glass, weren't easy to see through, but did block the sun on a long road trip so they were worth the money. They don't "roll up" very easily, but don't take a lot of room either. Oh, and I have used them when sitting in a parking space to put on the inside of the windshield to stay a bit cooler while waiting in the car. So, overall not bad. I think part of the trouble is the shape, if they'd been either round, rectangular or square they might have rolled up more easily and been easier to position on the window. If you're in a sunny climate and need them all the time, not sure this would be the best option, but if you're from where the sun doesn't shine and you're passing through where it does, they work.

These basically, almost, not quite fit my 2025 Hyundai Venue. They are difficult to close because of the off shape. One only fits drivers side and the other only fits the passenger side,. I didn't think about that because the shape is specific to each window. So, if you only want to put the driver's side on, you have to figure out which one is which. Am I making sense? Anyway, they do fit better than the rectangles I had but not sure it's worth the fight to close and hassle to pick the right side.
