An Australian custom-fit shade store
Snap Shades is a well-known Australian brand of custom car window sun shades, and many drivers search for an alternative to compare coverage, price and availability before buying. Auto Sunshades is one such option.
We make magnetic, removable sun shades tailored to specific makes, models and year ranges, and ship them anywhere in Australia. The best way to compare is simple: check whether your exact car is covered, see the window pieces included, and look at the from-price for your model.
Why drivers look for another option
- Your exact make, model or year isn't in stock where you looked.
- You want to compare price and range before buying.
- You need shades shipped fast, anywhere in Australia.
- You want a magnetic, removable fit — no suction cups, no drilling.
- You're shading rear seats for kids and want proper coverage.
- You want a second quote before committing to a custom set.
What to look for in custom car sun shades
Custom-fit, not universal
Shades cut to your vehicle's window shapes sit cleaner and block more light than one-size-fits-most products that leave gaps.
Magnetic attachment
A magnetic edge holds the shade against the door frame where suitable — no suction cups to fall off in the heat, no adhesive, no drilling.
Removable & reusable
Unlike tint film, a good shade comes off in seconds and goes back on when the sun is strong — ideal for leased, company or shared family cars.
Real model coverage
Look for a brand that lists your actual make, model and year range, with the right number of window pieces for your car.
Clear pricing & shipping
Upfront 'from' pricing and Australia-wide delivery beat waiting on a quote when you just want shades that fit.
Rear-seat coverage for kids
If sun protection for children is the goal, check that the set covers the rear door and quarter windows, not just the front.
