    Forget it - expensive mistake!
    The magnetic holders do not stick to the disco trim, and if they did, they would look bloody awful.
    Give it a miss and just get some window tinting!

    The terra firma wind deflectors that stick to the outside are tinted and also provide a bit more shade, not as much as the window socks would.

    I don't have window tinting and purchased these blinds as an easy fix alternative. So I am not sure how they would go if you have window tinting already (i.e. they might end up making things too dark). They are good quality and are easy to fit. However, the second row "passenger windows" require the use of two little stick on channel-fixings to secure the top part of these shades. I found that after a while the mounting pads do not grip too well on the plastic window trim (others have also noted that sticking items to this type of plastic is tricky. All the other blinds fit nicely on their own or use metal clips that slde behins the trim.

    Anyway, they may be worth a look for you.

    You may want to check out CarShades.co.uk

    Also, using 3M Adhesive primer will aid in holding the fasteners to the trim

    Nice thanks, I’ll keep this link for when the socks need replacing. Good option for the 3rd row as well.
