Got the shades and installed them.. Very good fit. I installed the sun block silver/black inserts to block the sun completely.

Thanks for your kind sharing. Do you use these for all the sides with sunshades?
The hatch shade doesn't come with the UV block sheet. I use the UV black out with my front shade and the falcon wing shades. I didn't install the rear window shades. They also have the black outs. The ones I posted are the UV black outs from the rear window. The other ones are installed. Product fits very well!
Shades are very dark and you can barely see through them, even without the black outs. I hope to reduce cabin heat when parked in the sun by 5 to 10 degrees, maybe more.

Will test the shades today in bright sun light and 90+ degree temperatures. Before the shades, interior would get to around 129 degrees.. Let's see to what temperature it will get up to with the shades in place. I do also use a shade for the lower windshield when the car is parked in the sun (not included in the kit)

Given enough time it would also get to the same temperatures. Sunshades and tint don’t lower the max temperature of your car, but slow the rate that the temperature increases.

Not sure if the reflective UV panels change that as the silver color reflects some of the sunlight back. Today's test was inconclusive as it became cloudy in the early afternoon and temperature in the car topped out at 113 before it became cloudy.
