Sunshade options

The only thing I can surmise is that the peeling resulted from putting the shade in place and taking it down. The 1-series interior is kind of cramped for how large and bulky the shade is.

I decided it was worth a shot. I even haggled them down to $10.00 just to see if they would bite on an offer.

Hopes this helps and for the price it's worth a shot!

I drive a 2011 convertible.

Tried to find that ebay one. Doesn’t look like it is still available. What was it called? Maybe I can search for it.

That's what it was with mine. I'd drag it over the nav when taking it down from the window.

I still have the foldable double circle one. I don't really like it as it doesn't fit well with my window since I have two suction cup mounts on the top.

Outside of that, I do feel like it might be rubbing up on the windshield and making me have to clean it more often. I can't explain why my windshield gets so dirty in the inside otherwise.

I'd probably get the styrofoam one now and just cut it up to fit my windshield perfectly.

I just put in an order for this set of rear shades. I'll let everyone know how they work and quality when they come in.
