I have never been a fan of sunroofs, especially the MINI's. the mesh pull shades are pointless (as many of you know) Even after tinting my sunroof, I was still unhappy with the light being let in. I have 5% tint all around the car too. I recently bought and received my Zippee shades for both sunroofs, and I'm in love. Its FINALLY dark in my interior. and if I ever want to open my sunroof, I just pul them down in 2 seconds, and store them in their little bag. here are some pictures...

not the best, it was raining, kinda dark, and my camera phone.

 

Nice !!! Glad it worked out for you.

 

Wasn't that the point. They do look good though.

 

lol, i meant outside...but good point nonetheless.

 

i have the same set. I love them!

they'll send you a license plate frame in a month or so.. haha I got one in the mail the other day from them...(maybe give me a free zippy shade set and i'll advertise for you with your license plate frame...)

 

Perhaps taking a poll is a good idea?

my plate arrived with my shades wont use it though...

I actually thought about trying to remove the huge logo, but when in the car and with the shade pulled closed, its barely visible.

 

Do they stay up when the mesh is retracted? I have a rattle starting in one of the mesh screens.

 

yes they stay up. They have suction cups to keep them up there
