What to Expect

Critical for stick-on types, helpful for suction types too. ### Step 3: Secure Fitting Attach the shades properly - no bubbles for stick-on, good suction for suction types, secure clips for clip-on varieties.

Good to Know
> 🚗 **Honestly?** Most sun shades are easy enough to fit yourself. I'd only really recommend booking this if you've bought custom-fit ones that are being difficult, or if you're combining it with other car work I'm doing anyway. **Remove for MOT** - Some stick-on shades need removing for MOT if they obstruct vision. Clip-on and suction types are fine as they're easily removable. **Devon summers** - We do get proper hot days in Devon. Sun shades make a real difference, especially if you're parked facing south. **Legal note** - Front side windows must have at least 70% light transmission. Only fit shades to rear windows.
Frequently Asked Questions about Car sun shade fitting in Tiverton
Why would I need help fitting sun shades?
The stick-on ones are dead simple - you can do those yourself. I'm really talking about the clip-on or suction types that need positioning right, or the custom-fit ones for specific car models. If you've bought a fiddly one and can't get it to stay put, I can sort it.
What type of sun shades can you fit?
Stick-on mesh ones, suction-mounted shades, clip-on types, roller blinds - pretty much anything. Custom-fit ones for specific car models are best but need careful fitting.
Do I need to buy the shades first?
Yes - get ones that fit your car windows. Universal ones work but custom-fit ones for your exact model look much better and block more sun.
Will they damage my windows or door frames?
Stick-on ones leave residue when removed (cleans off with adhesive remover). Suction and clip-on ones leave no marks at all. I'll make sure whatever type you've got is fitted without damage.
How much difference do they make?
Massive difference on hot days. Rear seat passengers (especially kids and pets) won't get roasted by direct sun, and your interior stays much cooler. Properly fitted shades block 90%+ of UV.
