Sunshades/ sun blinds - F31

Hey guys, just need something to keep the sun out the little one’s eyes.

Although the windows are tinted, a lot of sun seems to come through. Coming from a Range Rover I never really faced this problem.

The only option I can think of it to buy some sun blinds for the car, (only for back 2 windows, can anyone recommend something please?

Thanks in advance!

is it factory sun protection glass?

If so could get them tinted with UV protection film, almost near limo tint. That seems to work relatively well and looks clean.

i had my rears tinted on my E91, but on my F31 they were dark enough from factory – plus little one was older (2+) so would be able to move her head if the sun was directly facing her.

I've used the full sets from Carshades in 3 different vehicles (the current F31 has privacy glass so no need) and have always found them a good fit.

Thanks for all the responses guys, lots of options at hand, I think the extra tint option may be a great shout for ease and aesthetics. The sun shades I have a feeling my son will demolish as soon as he has the reach!

There are some official BMW sun shades which fit perfectly and are quite nice. They clip in and out too. You can also open the window with them in place, I've used them with my son.

Part number is 51462318007
