So I've been eagerly awaiting the availability of the Tesla sunshade, as I have rear facing seats which my kids love, except we live in SoCal and it gets bright and warm back there. The day I noticed the price for the sunshade, I ordered it:

The sunshade arrived in a bag very similar to the bag that the charging adapters come in. I unzipped the bag and pulled out the sunshade, which pops into shape quickly. It's a mesh material, a single piece, and installs without the use of suction cups or clips. It pops right next to the window, and stays in place easily within the space next to the rear window. It would take just a few seconds to remove it or replace it.
My kids felt a significant difference in the glare and heat in the back, and could still see out of the window pretty well. I haven't driven with it at night yet, but daytime visibility has been fine for me.
So far, I'm very happy with the purchase, although it is a bit pricey. The quality of construction seems very good and visibility is maintained. I had planned on tinting the rear window, but I don't think that will be necessary now.
