Exceptional and fast delivery, with inside a week! Followed the YouTube descriptive video and fitted all 7 pre-cut perfectly fitting sun shades in less than 20 minutes. This will, not only provide sun protection for my grandchildren and other passengers, but it will also create a cooler interior for my three dogs during transit. See the difference between the rear passenger window (solarplexius applied) and the front passenger window (no sun protection). It also gives exceptional security not allowing the inside of the car to be visual through the fitted windows! Thank you Solarplexius for an innovative and affordable product, saving me around £194 if I had purchased Volvo manufactured sun screens at £146 for pair of rear doors and a further £194 for a set of 3 luggage compartment protectors.

Not very happy. It's too dark and the material is thick and heavy for a large rear window and accordingly hangs in the middle and does not cover tightly. When vibrated, it visibly moves. And it's expensive for this quality.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We want to assure you that we haven't changed the thickness of our tints. What may have occurred is that we offer two different thicknesses to accommodate various car trims during the fitting process. However, if you prefer, we can certainly ship you a whole new set in the thicker material. Please note that they may be more challenging to fit, but if it would improve your experience and lead to a more positive review, we're more than happy to do so. Just let us know, and we'll arrange it for you as soon as possible.

It fitted “ok” but not great. Still gaps around the back window but nowhere to put the fixing bits to make it fit tighter. Same with the small fixed window. Neither fit snug agains the windows. The back door windows fit really well but I didn’t realise they don’t go down with the window so kind of pointless having them. We have children with travel sickness so need to be able to open the window. Not worth the price but will do for now. Hard to see in the pictures but these are the gaps.

Not as good as expected

They block out prying eyes and tint the windows nicely. Fit isn't great, leaving gaps in places and the brackets are really unsightly. I really wouldn't recommend for a 5 door vehicle. Peeling off the white plastic leaves white dust on them. One sheet had a rough edge, so quality control isn't %100

Quite a good product and will do the job. What i don't like is the clips which are unsightly unlike normal tint film. Also in my car the clips do not fit that great in the rear quarters. Not the clips fault as such but my trim gaps are quite large.

The people who are at Solarplexus need to try and fit these themselves.

The people who are at Solarplexus obviously have not tried to fit these panels to a Dacia Logan MCV, to get the rear side windows in properly you have to remove the side trim, the rear door windows wont let you open the window if you fit the panels, the tailgate window panel buzzes and rattles wont sit square in the window, as there is no trim round the tailgate window difficult to find anywhere to put the clips. A great idea, let down by marketing, they should say that you cannot use the rear door windows if you fit this, also on the Dacia you may have problems with the tailgate window, all in all not a good experience, and really a total waste of money.

Did not fit my VW T4 van - no response from customer service.

Delivery and communication to ensure the right panels were sent for my VW T4 camper van was very good and panels arrived quickly. But they simply did not fit. The plastic wedges were ineffective and looked terrible. I had to order double sided tape to try and get the panels to stay in place - which they did to a point but not snuggly so you end up with a wobbly, double glazed window effect with the panel ballooning away from the glass. Reached out via the customer service email twice to see if I had been sent the right panels - absolutely no response or acknowledgement. .

Poor design, poor customer service

Poor fit, cannot be installed properly in my car. Customer service is a joke, promising some additional clips and then stop responding, so a tape needed to be used to ensure the shade remains in place. Money wasted

We sincerely hope this message finds you well. We deeply value your patronage. We are pleased to have provided you with an update regarding the panels you recently received in an earlier email, just before this review. Our dedicated production area has diligently confirmed that the panels were dispatched in accordance with the specified model. After thoroughly reviewing the images thoughtfully shared by you, we are delighted to acknowledge that they are indeed in the correct format and primed for installation. The final step involves a bending process to ensure a seamless and secure fit. We understand that embarking on the installation process might seem a bit overwhelming, especially when attempting it without direct experience. In regard to the panel bearing the mislabeled sticker, we extend our sincerest apologies for any confusion it may have caused. To expedite a swift resolution, we kindly request your invaluable assistance in verifying whether this specific panel's format differs from the others. Armed with this crucial information, we can promptly dispatch an accurate replacement if necessary. In reference to the image you thoughtfully provided of the door panel, our assessment reveals that a minor tilt is present. Upon simple rotation, the panel aligns flawlessly with the door window, resulting in a perfect fit. If any doubts or queries arise during the installation process, beyond the scope of the instructional video we previously send, we stand ready to address them comprehensively. We wholeheartedly understand the significance of your satisfaction and remain steadfastly committed to guiding you through every phase. It's important for us to acknowledge that you retain the right to opt against the installation process. Should you choose this course of action, please rest assured that a refund will be promptly arranged. Your comfort and peace of mind are paramount to us, and we deeply value your input in this regard. We also wish to extend our sincerest apologies for any frustration you may have experienced, prompting you to leave this review. It truly saddens us to learn that you felt compelled to share a less than satisfactory review merely three days after receiving the panels, despite not yet engaging in the installation. We deeply appreciate your feedback, and we want to assure you that we are here to address your concerns and facilitate a resolution that aligns with your expectations. Once again, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for your order, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to assist you further.
