Our Story
As parents to a new-born baby, we were shopping for car window sunshades to keep our baby safe from the sun’s blinding glare and dangerous UV rays whilst they are in the vehicle.
The automotive sunshades that we found online and in-store were all of low build quality, looked visually unappealing on your vehicle, and left gaps in the car side windows for the suns blinding glares and UV rays to escape through.
With this in mind, we created Snap Shades – A stylish and perfect fitting car sunshade with fantastic build quality, custom measured to fit the side windows of your vehicle which snap in magnetically without clips or mess.
Looking for a convenient way to keep your car cool and protected from harmful UV rays? Look no further than our car window sunshades!

We manufacture our products using high-quality processes in China, Taiwan and Europe.
We have specially chosen a perforated fabric which does not block the driver’s blind spots. Snap Shades should be removed when vision is impaired.
Please note: Visibility out of windows does differ for everyone and depends on a variety of factors including but not limited to: angle looking out, tinting and lighting/weather conditions.
Absolutely! You still have functionality of your windows with Snap Shades installed. You can partially wind down the windows even when driving at reasonable speeds (approx. up to 70 km/hr). We do not recommend windows to be wound down completely when the vehicle is in motion.
Please note: Our recommendation assumes you only have the rear door windows open partially when driving, it does not take into account other windows of the car or wind speed or direction.
The product listing for your model will specify “magnetic mounting clips included” in the description if your model requires magnetic mounts for installation.
Some vehicles require magnetic mounts for the installation of the shades as the car window frame has plastic/rubber trim (non-magnetic). The magnetic mounts have double sided adhesive tape that sticks to the trim of the window frame. If required, magnetic mounts are included with your purchase.
Our products are easy to install and remove. Each product has installation instructions included. Any mounts/clips, if required, are included with your order. However, if you encounter any issues, we encourage you to contact us and send us photos so we can assist you.
We also provide free installation for customers at our warehouse in 99 Derby Street, Silverwater, Sydney, NSW 2128.
We expect fair, wear and tear over time. However, as Snap Shades are installed on the inside of a vehicle, they are not prone to stretching, flapping and/or fading over time.
Yes, we sure do. We sell any replacement/spare parts you may require for your Snap Shades.
Our Front Windscreen Shades have a triple laminate construction with a foam core centre that acts as an insulator, a reflective layer on the outside, soft felt backing on the inner side and are finished with a stylish black binding.
Our Front Windscreen Shade reduces interior vehicle temperature by up to 15 degrees Celsius and reduces interior surface temperature by up to 45 degrees Celsius. It also aims to help prevent fading and cracking of car interior over time.
Our Front Windscreen Shades do not have to sit flush to the glass. We usually make allowances around the rear vision mirror for items such as E-Toll tags and dash cameras.
If you have a dash camera, phone holder, GPS holder or other device installed on the front windscreen, our Front Windscreen Shade can usually be installed over the device if it is small, utilising the sun visors to keep the shade in place.
Unfortunately, if your device protrudes a significant distance from the glass, the shade will not be able to be installed. Please contact us if you wish to confirm whether our Front Windscreen Shade will be suitable with your devices.
We provide custom-fit Front Windscreen Shades to your windscreen to provide maximum protection from harmful UV rays and damaging heat. Our custom sun shades block out a significant amount of light and UV rays that enter from the front windscreen, however due to the angle of the front windscreen and additional sensors or different mirror shapes/sizes available for different models, there may be gaps around your rear-view mirror or sides to allow the sun shade to fit and to ensure installation is quick and easy.
The unique folding design allows for easy installation and removal. We also provide a handy storage bag for storage of your Front Windscreen Shade when it is not in use.

What is UV?
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a type of energy produced by the sun and some artificial sources, such as solariums. Factory made car tints only block a portion of the sun’s harmful UV rays. You will need car sunshades that cover the entire window to provide adequate UV protection in your car.
Babies tender and sensitive skin are the most prone to UV damage and a good quality car sunshade is a must if you have a baby or child in your car.
UV radiation isn’t like the sun’s light or heat, which we can see and feel. Your senses cannot detect UV radiation, so you won’t notice the damage until it has been done therefore please use car sunshades to protect your passenger and loved ones.
During the summer times remember to protect your skin and eyes by using car sunshades, covering clothing, sunscreen, a hat, shade and sunglasses. Don’t just wait for hot and sunny weather, use Snap Shades year round!
The sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the leading cause of skin cancer in Australia and around the world. UV damage also causes sunburn, tanning, premature ageing and eye damage.
