BMW 82111470411 Windshield UV Sunshade for E46 3 Series/M3

This sunshade is definitely a custom fit for an E46. It's about 3/16" thick foam core with reflective material on the front and dark grey on the back. It does a fantastic job of reflecting heat, it folds up nicely, and the bag is nicely fitted. You can't be too careless with it, though. It's rigid. It's not something you can smash up in the backseat of your car. It has to be folded carefully and not smashed. The foam core will dent or permanently crease if mistreated. Many won't mind, but I would rather not have BMW emblazoned across my windshield. People know what kind of car it is, and I'm not keen on advertising it any further.

I ordered this particular sunshade because I wanted one that fit my style of BMW. While it fits my automobile, feel that I paid for the BMW logo as it is rather cheap. I doubt it will last for more than one summer and at the price I paid - wasn't worth it. UPDATE 2012 - this has been a good sunshade as I am still using it. My first review was inaccurate and based on my initial perception.

It looks ok. It doesn't fit 100% and is kind of difficult to use. That being said It does look pretty good when it stays in place. It is a nice quality material and does work you just kind of have to fenagle it to stay. I also probably won't buy another one because it is good at protecting my dash which is all I really care about.

As described

Fits pretty close and is very sturdy but since its not 100% sometimes I return to the car to find it has fallen down on my dash. I have resorted to just tucking it under the visors like a normal sunshade which leaves a larger gap between the windshield and the reflector.

Fits perfectly in my e46 (2005 325i) windshield. Holds up without having to use my visors. Its pretty sturdy and thick unlike the typical sun shades. The only con is the price in my opinion. I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase and I recommend this item to others. Just price check around before committing if you can.

Kind of expensive but fits real tight and fits better than my old one (which I got at the dealer). I only realize how much more this new one actually covers the whole dash board from glass to glass.

I have a 2002 Bmw E46 M3 Coupe and this fits like a glove ! Highly recommended to any E46 M3 Coupe or Convertible owner as a definite fit !
