Anyone have the shade that Tesla sells? Based on the picture, it looks to span the entire length of the rear window. Can anyone confirm?

I am still not clear on what these shades do. They look opaque but say they block (only?) 80% of the sun. From my initial research, it looks like the "dual" types have both opaque and screen shades. Can anyone comment on that observation?As many of you M3 2021 owners know, the headliner of the 2021 version is slightly larger than prior model years, and therefore the roof shades currently being sold are slightly too wide. Either you get bowing as you try to clip them in, or you can’t fit them in at all.
Well, Tesmanian has finally released a version 2 of their roof shades, and mine fit perfectly. Hopefully this we’ll help other 2021 owners as well.

The shades are a dense mesh material. You can maybe see an area of light thru the shade that is the sun, but it’s mostly opaque. Most of these types of shades also come with an additional liner that you can place between the shade and the roof that will completely block all light, if that’s your preference. You can find YouTube reviews as well which should help you picture what I’m trying to describe.I am still not clear on what these shades do.

Well if it makes you feel any better, this is the fourth set of shades I have purchased! The shades a reference in my original post are by far and away the best fitting the best quality shades of all the ones I’ve tried so far, including tesla OEM.Thanks @sortaconfused. What you describe is the type I would prefer. But I'd like to find another member or three that have purchased from a particular company.
None of that crap would cut it for me, living in the desert (110+F lately), and being prone to skin cancer (have a rare leukemia with the same BRAF mutation as melanoma). So my solution was to completely block the freaking glass, with the same material as my windshield sunshield. This company does aircraft insulation, and they're custom fit for each vehicle, so I recommend their windshield sunshield too (it lasts the life of the car). I bought both sets for less than $100 shipped. If you select 'TOP WINDOW', it comes with BOTH roof pieces. It's not super pretty, but since it's very close to the color of the headliner, it feels much more airy than black mesh, and you don't even look at them. You can also buy the shades for the side windows, like if you travel with the car in summer, when you charge it. I bought the rear windows for the doggie, and will buy the front windows now, for when we charge the car. You can get a discount with the 'DAD21' code, if you order soon, I guess. Not affiliated with them in any way; just a satisfied customer. Hope this helps somebody in my situation.

I'm relieved to hear this! My shades fit so perfectly, and that perfect fit was such a stark contrast to all the other pre-2021 M3 shades. After seeing your previous post, I was afraid maybe I had somehow thrown some bad advice out to the community. Really glad to hear the shades are working well for you now.Previously I had posted about the Tesmanian sunshades, mentioning that they didn’t fit properly. I had it in reversed, (they’re not a perfect square and can only go in one way). After putting it properly, I can report it fits nicely, no sag . I asked forum moderators to remove my old post.
For anybody who saw my negative post regarding the vendor, please disregard.
Yup, it was my mistake and I wanted to clear it up. I imagine spring and fall should be okay.After seeing your previous post, I was afraid
Just spent a week at the Jersey shore with the car baking in the sun all day. When I got into the car, there was no discomfort, you couldn't feel any heat radiating off the glass roof. I would highly recommend.Previously I had posted about the Tesmanian sunshades, mentioning that they didn’t fit properly.

Please tell ... I also live in NYC and now that summer is basically here, I need to get one for my M3 2021I just ordered from Tesmanian and I'll report back when I get them. It's been hot in NYC the last few days and I figure these should help a bit.
They work great. Without it my bald head felt the heat radiating from roof (I’m tall so my head is reasonably close). With shades, it’s very comfortable, no heat radiating.Please tell ... I also live in NYC and now that summer is basically here, I need to get one for my M3 2021
