They work very well at keeping the heat out and also keep the sun off even if you have the window down if you have a 5 door  :smiley:

And a bargain IMO. I got them for the Audi and they are perfect for keeping the light out for my daughter  :cool:

They are better suited for 5 door cars really as the window remains tinted with the window dropped down.

Interesting as my young daughter would be the main reason for me considering light tints on my wagon.

Do the screens roll up compactly when unused?

Are they a perfect fit as stated on their website?

light tints are fine - dark tints are chavvy
ARZ K03s, Oettinger Side Skirts, R32 front, Carbon stage 2, Forge 007p (yellow spring), Forge Actuator (yellow spring), Pipercross panel filter with DSG parts, N249 and N112 deleted, SAI deleted, Carbon canister deleted, Rear wiper deleted, Long Life turbo back custom exhaust with 200 cell sports cat, VR6/G60 clutch kit, Creation Motorsport TIP, Catch can, 'Wellycooler', K04 charge pipe, S3 ported inlet manifold - looks pretty standard on the outside though :)

They dont roll up. They sit inside the window frame so even when the window is down the blind remains covering the opening  :smiley:  they are perforated too to allow air through

Ask any one at Volksfest a few years back how well they worked. The back of my car was the coolest place on the site
