Rear window shade/screens worth it or not??

[motordavid]

We have them on our '01, since day one and we like them: a bit more sun reducing, more privacy, but most adults riding in back will open them, but not carefully...

Ours still work 14 yrs later, but they are fragile and often snapped open when one closes a rear door, as the the non OCD/non-owner puts their hands where the screens are.

Cool, but I suspect kids will beat on them, and they are just waiting to catch/snag or break. I have no idea how to replace them if mine did break.

Hmmmm, now I'm torn! I think I will be heading back to the wrecker with some $$ just to see what kind of deal I can wrangle! Our X is parked in the garage, so its usually quite protected from the sun. We drive in the Okanagan a fair bit, and the kids (and us adults) usually drive around with the windows open! (old school we had cars with no AC growing up! lol!!)
The screens on the one in the wrecker looked as though they were never used!! thanx for the advice all!!!

If you can get a good deal, get them. I don't think you'll regret it.
