For the price of the retractable roof shade $500-$450, I think I would go with the ceramic tint at 70% for the roof panel. Which I was quoted in my area of $450 which will block 99% of the heat coming in the car and keep the full glass.
I have had a few of these sunshades and always the same issue. They are too big for the font and the plastic clips heat up, deform and allow it to start falling down. There has to be a legit version but with all the over hyped reviews it’s just hard to know what works and what doesn’t.
My 2019X came with that black sunshade. I keep it installed as it reduces glare for my eyes. I would like the one that can open and close, if available for my older X
I don't get it. What was Elon thinking? Nobody likes the all-glass roof and everyone I know has some sort of shade installed. When I bought my Model 3 having an all-glass roof never felt like a plus.
I don't have my car yet. But the all glass compared to other cars in general is a nice plus. Obviously, this is not an aspect you like about your tesla 🤷
Great video for the upcoming Heat Wave season. I have the 2nd one. It's great but with the clips were just part of the visor... it's been a year since I've had it and I've already lost 2 of the clips. Didn't need it for the winter season so took it off now I can't find them. If they could just make it to where the clips didn't come off that would be great! Not looking to install the sliding one like your got, but cool. I'm out here in Nevada serve in the military with a shaved head. Without those visors I head sunburnt during my almost 2 hour commute each way to work so it's absolutley essential for me to have. Yes you will get burnt without a shade above you!
Hey, thanks for the comment! I can relate with the long commute and shaved head issue. I love our military, so thank you for your service! In regards to the lost clips, I would recommend reaching out to the seller first to see if they'll send you some replacements. If not, you can buy a new set for about $10. amzn.to/3HZQ1Xi Thanks again for watching and commenting!
I live in Hawaii and the tesla is a greenhouse! Way too hot, so I had ceramic tinting installed all around and on the sunroof as well. That was supposed to block out 80% of the heat....not even close, so I'm looking at the covers now and your video is perfect. I like the Kunist and will just leave it installed permanently, but how much heat did it block out compared to the other 2? Thanks!
I’m sorry I don’t have a scientific answer for you, but it does a great job of keeping the heat off my bald head. The other brands also do a decent job, but I really do like this one a lot.
Personally happy with my Tesla OEM shades. It completely covers the rear but I'm eyeing the new hansshow sliding. All the current ones seem to be uneven and leave openings.
There should be temperature readings included.

I did 25% and it took my glass temps from 135 down to 110 in August. You go too dark you loose the benefit of even having glass in the first place
@@TheEvilJarradThe ceramic can go up to 98% heat rejection and have no tint, all the way up to full tint.
Some tint shops won't tint the roof for fear of glass cracking from heat retention
I was NOT ready for that intro 😭🤚🏼
Thanks for the info. Absolutely essential to have something where I live in England, from about July 24 to August 07
Thanks for testing these. Absolutely essential to have something where I live in Australia, from about October to March.

I am preparing a protector for the roof and all the windows, with an aluminum roll like the one they use in camping vans.
I used this for my model y roof. cut out and placed on the mesh sun shade. It has been great to insulate from the Texas heat lately

My family and I love it and don't have any shade installed in any of ours. We only put on the shade on very hot days if need be.
The glass roof is actually more structurally ridged that a metal roof and is a structural element, according to Tesla

No temperature readings. It ain't about looks its how well it cuts heat.

The Hansshow sliding cover is nice. For anyone interested in that one, coupon code becausetesla works for that one too. 😎
So if I were to buy a Model Y for aboout $55K, I'd still need to buy a ceilling for it so that the vehicle could stay cool?
Most people don’t, but some do. It’s personal preference.
OR BUY THE BMW FOR ABOUT 80, SAVE LESS MONEY RUNNING IT, AND ENJOY THE MORORIZED SUNROOF.
@@BecauseTesla
Can you perfrom a test to see their relative reduction in cabin temp or cabin temp rise
How do these work in the winter to conserve heat?
Wish someone would show which clips go where and how to actually install????
3?
so i want the first one, but first i need to buy a tesla.
I’m getting a Tesla in 2025 so I will have to wait and watch this video again next year.
you need to change that intro bro
His intro is fine, I like it it's what sets him apart
Excellent video, thanks! Does the first sun shade you introduced rattle at all?
It fits in there pretty tight, so not a lot of rattles. There are a few from time to time, but not enough to be annoying. It’s a good product.
