    Lightbulb Sun Shade

    Was wondering if we can instal this kind of sunshade on the doors?

    I see that the panels are bulky enough and have space to put that straight hole

    Now i just have to look for a sun shade and other stuff for DIY

    Do you have any other links to the product? I avoid watching YouTube videos anymore because of all the advertisements. Google has gotten greedy.

    hehe heres what i have in mind.

    im gonna look for this type of sun shade but should be cloth type
    then remove the suction cups and screw down the roll in the inside panel
    then for the straight hole, im gonna put a rubber around the trims so that the trims will be covered with rubber.
    and on the other end of the sun shade is the hook or clip
    Idea complete, i just have to buy the things to assemble

    Not that you can easily find them or if you do they will be expensive. Comes in a set of two for the side doors.

    These retractable sunshades are nice (I've used them.) But of course they are generic and don't cover the entire window.

    What about window film?

    my rear doors are not that heavily tinted, med tint only. My family wants more shade at the back so i was thinking of having the shades. Its much expensive here to install tints or film rather than installing retractable shades.
