Tints Or Sunblinds?

Featured Replies

title says it all really unsure which to get... opinions and experiences please. :)



I use blinds and love the fact that they are removable for bad weather or bad visibility.

Keep the car cooler for the dogs too.

I ebaying earlier on but couldn't find any for my car or even on ford part site

By tints, do you mean the tinted foil that you place on your windows ?

I have tried applying a small screenprotector on my smartphone and it took me 1 hour to get is on a 3,5" screen without bubbles. :(

A few years ago I had the idea I could put a sunscreen on top of my car's windshield. After 15 minutes of trying it wrinkled it up angry and throw it away.

If I were you I would buy sunblinds, they can easily be taken off. :rolleyes:

Personally I love the tinting I have (car had it already) you look at Windows and hard to see in but inside you wouldn't even notice even on a dark night

I have shades in my fiesta atm & they are excellent (ford ones) & I had a set in my focus before that (bought from van styles). The vanstyles ones, the rear window shade was in 2 parts and the seam down the middle of the back window was annoying. I would get the Ford ones (made by climair).

fordpartsuk.com sell them (listed under fiesta 2008 external parts section, but should fit newer fiesta too).

Tinting looks better but blinds are more practical so up to you what you want

Going down to fords tonight after work to see if I can have a look and feel to see if I will like them. Hopefully they will put them in a display car... Fingers crossed
