The Mini Cooper Sunshade is PERFECT for the Mini Cooper Clubman. It is well-made and well-constructed, such that there are seams and panels that fold and tuck so that it can fit neatly into the case that it comes in. The case is even well made -- so that you can store the Sunshade between uses. The seams and panels also make for a snug fit for the Mini Cooper windshield -- it even has little corner panels to ensure that every inch of your windshield is covered so that not a single ray of sunshine can penetrate. This is the best sun shade I've ever had, so even if it is a bit expensive, it is well worth the money. I bought it through Amazon.com -- cheaper than the dealer and it arrived in just two days (counting the day I placed the order)!

Strong well made product. very easy to use. I highly recommend this product to those looking for a way to keep out the heat.

In Florida this item is a must. It is a bit pricey but it is well made and it is perfect fit on the wind shield.

This sunshade was pricier than other shades offered on websites. So glad that I invested the money. Great sunshade!

Consistent with other reviews, this sunshade is indeed a very good match and an almost perfect fit for my MINI Clubman. It does fit slightly lower than depicted, and this leaves about an inch at the top of the windshield exposed - though it is blocked some by visors and rain sensor/rear view mirror attachment. It also makes it a slight reach for the visors to hold it in place. But it covers all other aspects of the windshield as if it was molded to it, and the wings on the edges, though fragile looking, are perfect for filling in the corners to block sun from the dash.

And it works - my car was significantly cooler on a 97 degree day than without this sunshade - even with the perforated sunroof shades! The biggest benefit was how much cooler it kept my dash and steering wheel. So definitely would recommend it for your MINI Cooper.

Since getting a MINI I decided it best to protect my investment from the Texas sun, which can be pretty hardcore.

The sunshade fits pretty well. The only negatives I've found after using it about a month is that it leaves a tiny amount of space vertically, and that I'm always bumping the rear view mirror putting it up. Small things, I know, but when you're paying such a premium for a sunshade...

Otherwise, great item.

The sunshade I received, MINI Cooper and Clubman Sunshade - fits model years 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 and 2010 (will also fit the 2009 and 2010 Convertible), did not totally cover the top of the windshield. I called them and was sent another shade and it was the same. I called and told them the problem. I told them the picture of the sunshade on the site completely covers the top of the windshield. I was told the picture of the shade on the site had been propped up to completely cover the top of the windshield. The shade needs a small cutout on top so it will fit under the mirror when installing, since the shade is rigid. I checked around and that's just the way it fits.
I like the shade, so I'll probably prop it up with a dark towel. Even if I don't prop it up, it covers most of the glass. Just a small gap at top.
I was going to give this site 4 stars since the picture is misleading, but, they are getting 5 because they are honest and were great to work with. Real friendly. I do think they should have a stand alone picture of the sunshade. I would purchase from them again.

The screen unfolds from the center, slide it in atop the dash so that it doesn't hit your rear view mirror and, viola, it's blocking out the sun, cooling down your car and keeping the dash from baking.

It has two tiny wings on the end of the sunshade that are annoying to keep in the deployed position, but with a little effort, see above, they completely cover the window.

Materials are excellent. Purchase price is steep for a sunshade, but it is still a couple of bucks less than a Mini Dealership.

The sunshade definitely fits the windshield to a T. The only slight annoyance is that since it is a accordian shade there are times when it bumps the rear view mirror a bit or you need to do a reach over for those last corner pieces to fit. Otherwise, it definitely makes a difference to overall temperature in the car on those hot and sunny days.

This custom made shade fits MINI's windshield perfectly. It protects the dashboard from fading and keeps the car much cooler. It even has the MINI logo on the front. My MINI loves her "shades".
