Mitsubishi Lancer Sun Shades
Few small cars are as common on Australian roads as the Lancer — first cars, second cars, ex-fleet sedans still doing the daily commute. It is a low, close-fitting cabin, so back-seat passengers sit right against the door glass and a low morning or afternoon sun lands straight at eye level. Our shades are cut to the Lancer's door window outlines and hold on magnetically, so the back seat gets real shade on the drive and the cabin isn't an oven after a day parked at work.
Why Mitsubishi Lancer owners choose custom shades
Shade where a child seat actually sits
In a car this size the child seat is hard against the rear door glass. The rear pair puts shade exactly there, rather than a universal rectangle that leaves half the window uncovered.
Cuts the low-sun glare on the commute
The Lancer's side glass sits low and close. A westerly sun on the way home comes in under the visor and straight onto whoever is in the back — mesh panels take the sting out of it.
Easier on an interior that's already done years
Most Lancers on the road now have a decade or more of Australian sun behind them. Keeping direct sun off the seats and door trims slows down the fading and cracking that follows.
Privacy without touching the glass
Mesh panels make it much harder to see what's on the back seat in a shopping-centre car park, and they lift straight off — nothing stuck to the window, nothing to strip off before you sell the car.
Features
Cut to Lancer door glass
Patterned from the door window outlines on an actual car of that shape, so the panel follows the curve of the frame instead of sitting square across the middle of the glass.
Magnetic mounting, no suction cups
The border grips the steel frame around the door glass. Nothing sticks to the window, nothing drops into the door card halfway down the freeway.
See-through mesh
Like a fly screen — passengers can still watch the road go by and you keep a usable view in the mirrors, while the bulk of direct sun and glare is blocked.
Off in seconds, stores flat
Lift a corner and the panel comes away. They fold flat into a Lancer door pocket or under the parcel shelf, so they live in the car rather than in the shed.
Fitment for your Mitsubishi Lancer
Be careful with Lancer years — the model ran through several very different body shapes in Australia, and we do not have a set cut for every one of them. We currently list two: a set patterned for the 2000–2003 sedan, and a second Lancer set that is not tied to a build year in our catalogue. Because the door glass changed shape between generations, please don't assume by eye. Send us your build year (and VIN if you have it handy) and we'll tell you which pattern matches your car, or let you know honestly if we can't cut yours yet. Both sets cover the four door windows only — there are no quarter-pane or rear-glass panels for the Lancer.
Covers: Front driver and passenger door windows, Rear passenger door windows, All four door windows as one set.
Installation
- Match each panel to its window — the front and rear door shapes are different.
- Hold the magnetic border up to the steel frame around the glass and let it pull on.
- Run a finger around the edge so it sits flush into the corners of the frame.
- Peel from one corner to remove, then fold flat into the door pocket.
Mitsubishi Lancer sun shade FAQs
- Which set fits my Lancer?
- Tell us the build year. One set is cut for the 2000–2003 sedan; the other Lancer set in our catalogue isn't listed against a year range, so we check it against your car before we ship. If your Lancer is a shape we don't have a pattern for, we'll say so rather than send you something that won't sit right.
- Do you make a rear window or quarter-glass shade for the Lancer?
- No. For the Lancer we make door window panels only — a front pair, a rear pair, or all four together. There are no rear-glass or quarter-pane panels in the range.
- Can I buy just the rear pair?
- Yes, and it's the most popular choice for parents. The rear pair covers the two back door windows, which is where a child seat or a napping passenger sits.
- Can I leave them on while driving?
- The rear shades are made to stay on. Fit the front pair while the car is parked — to pre-cool it before you get in — and take them off before you drive so the front side windows are clear.
- Will they mark the paint or the glass?
- They shouldn't — the magnets sit on the painted steel frame, not on the glass, and there is no adhesive involved. Wipe grit off the frame before fitting, the same as you would before wiping down a door.
