About these KIA CERATO 2004-2008 sun shades

Plenty of these are still doing daily duty, and Kia Cerato (2004–2008) sun shades make them nicer to live with. Tailored to this model's door glass, they ease glare for the driver and keep the rear seat comfortable for passengers through an Australian summer.

Three configurations cover the Cerato: front doors as a pair, rear doors as a pair, or all four door windows together. Rear-only suits back-seat passengers and child seats; the full set does the most to hold down cabin temperature when parked. They're shaped to the 2004–2008 windows, with other Cerato years listed separately.

Custom-measured on your exact car — Every shade is measured directly on each individual vehicle, then produced at the workshop, fitted to the car, and fine-tuned until it meets standard. Only the finished, fitted car is photographed before the product goes to market — so every product is precise, thanks to a closed-loop, specialised process.

A genuine, gap-free fit — Exact dimensions mean the shades sit flush: clean-looking, with no gaps or warping and no damage to the door seals. Rear-door shades cover the whole door, while front-door shades are cut to leave just enough room to see your mirror, watch the road, and reach toll and parking cards.

100% black polyester mesh — The mesh blocks UV rays and cuts glare and cabin heat. Already have window film? Add these shades and you're set. No film yet? The shades alone are highly effective — there's no need to film your side windows (film the windscreen if you'd like).

Fast on, fast off — Fitting and removing the shades is quick and simple. Even with the window down, the shade still blocks sun, dust, and insects. Best of all, from inside you can see out clearly, while from outside it is harder to see in.

Shades hold securely in normal driving — we recommend removing them at highway speeds.

Build quality

Round 304 stainless, not flat steel

Most shades are framed with flat steel wire. It corrodes, and its edge works through the mesh at the fold. Ours is round-profile 304 stainless — it doesn't rust, and it doesn't cut the fabric it sits in.

Six close-ups comparing frames. Standard flat steel: a thin flat wire, prone to rust, shown corroded and having torn through the mesh. Our round steel frame: a polished round 304 stainless tube that won't rust and won't tear the mesh.

Visibility

See out, without being seen

The mesh is open enough to see through from inside and dense enough to keep the cabin private from outside. Windows still wind down, and air still moves through.

Adrian B.

Really impressed with how strong the magnets are. Was worried they'd fly off at speed but I've had the windows down on the highway and they didn't move. The shade material feels decent quality too, not that flimsy stuff that tears after a week. Well worth it.

Camila H.

Been using these for about a month now through a Sydney summer. They cut the heat a lot, the car is definitely cooler when I get in after it's been parked up. Only thing is they don't cover 100% of the window, there's a tiny gap at the top corner. Not a big deal, probably unavoidable with a universal fit.

Ben F.

Got these for my hatch and they do the trick nicely. Rear windows especially, the dog sits in the back and the sun used to belt in from the side. Now she just chills out. Quick delivery too, ordered Thursday arvo and they were here Monday.

H. Lee

Can't fault the shades, they work well and stay on. But the courier left them at the wrong address and I had to go track them down two streets over. Not really the seller's fault I guess but it was a hassle. Product itself is fine.

Lucas P.

Perfect fit on all four windows. Wasn't sure about the universal thing but they contour to the frame well and you can't really see them from inside the car, just the shade. Cuts the glare right down on the morning commute when the sun's low and in your eyes.
