There were times when a diaper was tucked into the window as a sunscreen. The times are over. There are now a number of ways to prevent the interior from heating up.

At the beginning of the car boom, a cloth diaper clamped between the windshield and the body was the only sun protection for the children on the back seat for a long time. The times are over. Today there are a number of ways to prevent the interior from heating up.

Winnie the Pooh a classic

The classic in family cars today are sun visors decorated with Winnie the Pooh or the tiger duck, which are attached to the windshield with suction cups. With a motif, the bezels cost around eight euros; all in black, they are available from around two euros. They can be attached and removed as often as you like. The suction button covers have the disadvantage that the windows cannot be opened. This is different with the self-adhesive sun protection pads, which allow the window to be opened and closed without any problems. Such pads are available from around five euros, depending on their size.

Tinted sun protection films that are glued to the car windows are not only inconspicuous, but also embellishing. The films absorb up to 99 percent of the partly harmful solar radiation, explains Michael Näger from the accessories supplier ATU. However, one should note that the higher the degree of absorption, the more opaque and opaque the films are. This can restrict your view, especially in the evening and at night. In addition to the classic deep black films, the sun protection films are also available in other colors such as blue or green. The prices depend on the vehicle model and the quality of the film.
