This set includes front-door panels — parked use only. Australian road rules don't allow shades on the front driver or passenger windows while you're driving. Fit them when the car is parked, and take them off before you drive. Rear-door and third-row panels are fine to leave on.

About these MAZDA CX-8 sun shades
The Mazda CX-8 sun shades are shaped for this SUV's side windows, where rear-seat passengers — often kids in boosters — feel the sun most on long hauls. They soften glare and keep the cabin noticeably cooler when parked.
Available sets for the CX-8 are the front door pair, the rear door pair, and the combined four-piece set. The rear pair covers everyday family use, while the full set shades both rows for road trips and hot-weather commutes alike.
☑ 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.



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.

Reviews
What customers say
No drama with the shades, they're solid and do the job. But the wait was ridiculous. Ordered early December, didn't arrive til just before Christmas with barely any updates in between. If I'd known it would take that long I would've just bought something locally.
After a full Brisbane summer with these I can say they hold up well. Still sitting where I put them, magnets haven't weakened, no fading or anything. The car is noticeably cooler when I get in after work, used to be like an oven. Glad I got them.
Can't fault the shades, they work well and the fit is decent. Delivery was slower than quoted though, tracking said out for delivery for three days before it actually showed up. Seems like the courier was the holdup, not the seller.
Does wat they say. Keeps the sun off the kids in the back and looks tidy from outside too, not like those suction cup ones that always look naff. Reccommend.
Tried the stick-on type before and they kept peeling off in the heat. These are way better, the magnetic ones just snap on and stay there. Took them off and put them back on a few times now and still hold firm. Around $50 odd well spent.
