Rear Sunshades for XC60

Volvo dont seem to do them.

Does anyone know where I can get some from?

Thanks

These are excellent, Got a set in my XC90 and had numerous sets for my previous cars and Mrs/mums car. All fit very well.

Definitely worth the money

First link seems to be to the old model, and not for the SPA platform?
Second link seems to be fine.

Can you elaborate on the fitting? Is it clip-on/off style, or do you need to attached something like small fittings or anchors of some sort? I had some shades for older cars that required you to glue little things to the doors etc. where the shades could be anchored. Not really an elegant solution.

They are all fitted with clips attached to the blind that hooks behind trim. Some blinds do no need clips atall and just slot into the trim, rear quarter on XC90 for example. All my blinds (8 in total) can be removed in under a minute with absolutely zero evidence remaining that they were even fitted. Again just 2 minutes to refit all blinds. Love mine, between the family I think we’ve had 5 or 6 sets for different model cars. Recommend to a friend who was going to tint his new Kodiak, and again he’s over the moon with his car shades and much cheaper than tints.

I used the carshares ones previously in my old XC90, but found that the blinds induced motion sickness in the rear passengers (children). Admittedly one of them was a vomit-comet in general, but the other wasn't normally.

They were very well made, simple to fit and looked good.

But because of the sickness we went with tinted windows after a while, and for future cars.

Just for reference my 5 and 2.5 year old have never experienced such issues.

My XC90 was used as the template for them to create the pattern, as such my set were free 😬

+1 for carshades.co.uk I had them on my previous 60, perfect for kepping my working dogs cool and out of sight. I have tints on my current 60, but they don't keep the cabin cool like the shades . Plus you can open the windows and still maintain privacy.
