I am unsure which way to go having no experience with either.
A. Does the auto rear shade impair driving visibility ? Sure the rear can be kept cooler in summer and dropped down in winters, but there's no protection for the front windows (which are used more). B. Tinting allows the possiblilty of going within legal limits for rear/rear-sides and minimal tint for front-sides. Stuck with the tint in winter. Any suggestions from those with expereince with either or both ? |
I have had the electric rear window screen on my two cars. I found that the rear window screen was a valuable addition and one of the best accessories to have on a car in terms of usage. In addition, even at night, it significantly reduces the glare coming from the headlights from the trailing cars with very little loss in visibility.
The rear window screen is better than tinting since as the previous post indicates, you have the option between clear and shaded. You do not have this option with the tinting. |
hi, my E60 has rear shade and tinted rear and side windows, and so far no problems with visibility at all, it's very useful :) . I'd order at least the shade, no doubt about that, and even the side ones if you have rear passengers often, in case oyu don't like the tinted windows.

So you suggest getting the package (since i will carry family in rear).
Additionally just tint the windows (front and back as needed) and do NOT tinit te rear since i can use the shade to cut sun/heat and stay without the rear tint that can minimize visibitly evn more... not sure if that is what you suggest ? how would it look with only sides tinting and not the rear (of course front as well) |
I think they are saying tint the rear and all of side windows. The tint doesn't have to be that dark, maybe 50% and then the shade can be raised or lowered. I too will have a 5 or 6 month old by the time I get my car, and I am thinking about this as well. I live in texas and the sun gets strong, so I will most likely lightly tint and at least get the electric rear window shade, and maybe the side shades if needed.

is it possoble to get just electric rear and not the manula side shades ? thought the pkg included both. |
You are right, the manual does come with the package, so I will have the manual as well. But, if I don't like those, I will just remove the manuals, but keep the rear one.
