In stock — dispatched next business day from Sydney.
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 MERCEDES GLA 250 sun shades
Sitting a little taller puts more glass in the sun, which is why Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 sun shades are worth having. Tailored to this compact SUV's door windows, they take the harshness out of side glare and keep the rear seat comfortable for family duty.
Three sets are available for the GLA: a front pair, a rear pair, or all four door windows together. Choose the rear pair if child seats or back-seat passengers are the priority, or the four-piece set to shade the whole cabin — useful for a car that parks outdoors through summer.
☑ 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.

What customers say
Got these mainly for UV protection for the kids in the back. After a Melbourne summer they've held up well, no fading or coming loose. The front ones are a bonus, keeps the morning sun out of my eyes on the commute.
Quick delivery, easy to fit, does the job. What more do you want for 40 bucks. The car stays noticeably cooler and I can actually hold the steering wheel without burning my hands now.
Third set of window shades I've tried and finally found ones that stay on properly. The magnetic frame is the way to go, no mucking around with suction cups or sticky tabs. Had em about 6 weeks now, through a Brisbane summer, still going fine.
Works well and blocks the heat, no question. Only reason not 5 stars is the dispatch took 5 business days before it even left the warehouse. Shades themselves are great, no quality issues at all.
Thought they might look tacky from the outside but they're actually pretty subtle. Nice tight fit and the mesh is fine enough to keep the bugs out too when you've got the windows down. Good product, fair price.
