WeatherTech Custom Fit SunShade

The WeatherTech Custom Fit SunShade is a laser-measured, dual-layer automotive sunshade that provides superior heat and UV protection for your vehicle's interior. Designed and manufactured in the USA, this sunshade uses a unique cross-link polyethylene foam core sandwiched between two reflective layers to block up to 97% of harmful rays and reduce interior temperature by up to 40°F.

Who it's for

This sunshade is perfect for anyone who wants a durable, custom fit without the bulk of thicker alternatives.

• Owners of new or newer vehicles who want to maintain resale value by preventing dashboard cracking.
• People living in sunny, warm climates where interior heat is a constant concern.
• Drivers who frequently park at airports or train stations for extended periods.
• Those who prefer a rigid sunshade that stays in place without sagging.

Key features & specs

How it compares

Compared to the Covercraft UVS100 which uses a soft fabric, the WeatherTech SunShade uses a rigid foam core that resists sagging over time. Generic mesh shades often allow more light and heat to pass through. WeatherTech's laser-measured precision ensures a tighter fit than most custom-cut competitors.

How to use it

1. Select your exact vehicle year, make, and model from the WeatherTech website or retailer to get the correct shade.
2. Unfold the sunshade and hold it up to the inside of the windshield with the reflective side facing the glass.
3. Press the edges into the corners of the windshield; the rigidity holds it in place.
4. When removing, fold in half and then roll loosely for compact storage in the trunk or behind a seat.
5. Clean with a soft, damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the reflective surface.

"Fits like a glove. The rigid material stays flat against the glass and doesn't droop like my old shade. My car stays noticeably cooler after parking all afternoon." — Verified buyer

Frequently asked questions

Does the WeatherTech Custom Fit SunShade fit my specific car?

Yes, the shade is custom laser-measured for thousands of vehicle models, but you must be sure to select the correct year, make, and model when ordering.

Is the WeatherTech SunShade worth the price compared to a cheaper foam shade?

Absolutely, because the precise fit prevents light leaks and the rigid foam lasts much longer than soft foam or fabric alternatives, saving money over time.

Can I use this sunshade on the rear window?

WeatherTech offers separate custom-fit shades for rear and side windows; the front windshield shade is not recommended for other windows due to shape differences.

How much does the WeatherTech SunShade reduce interior temperature?

WeatherTech claims a reduction of up to 40°F, but actual results vary based on outside temperature, vehicle color, and sunlight intensity.

Does the WeatherTech SunShade block 100% of UV rays?

No, but it blocks up to 97% of UVA and UVB rays, which is sufficient to prevent premature fading and cracking of dashboards and upholstery.
