So as I mentioned I had ordered an Eclipse sunshade for my wife's Murano. Here are a couple pictures. It was easy to install and basically meets in the middle, so little different than the other accordion sunshade that pulls all the way across (it apparently has a cheap connection that tends to break). The Eclipse uses Velcro to attach the pieces in the middle. Anyway I am going to see how it holds up in the Hot Texas Summer.
This is a degrading problem for Mercedes owners to have. Mercedes owners should be able to push a button and walk away! Mercedes could make all windows (windshields, side windows, and rear windows) with the technology used in the pano-sunroofs, which darken with the touch of a button! Even the push of a button would be unnecessary, if the darkening occurred automatically (after a decent interval), when the engine was shut off. Cost would be no issue, at least for the "mighty" S-Class. I suppose it would require the usual development cycle of 2 years to develop and 5 years for the lawyers, but MB should get started.
SunSHADES are so old-fashioned! Darkening WINDOWS would provide SunGLASSES to protect interiors. A discreet chime would sound, as the WINDOWS automatically darkened a minute or two after the engine was stopped or lightened when the engine was started! (Darkening windows would also conceal valuables and provide privacy for "romantic activities"!) Get going, Mercedes!
I just bought sunshades for my vehicles from Quiksnap.com a week ago. It's very easy to install and remove but more importantly it protects the interior.
