Features
The mission for Sunshades for Rivian R1S is to make the best-fitting, most durable, and effective sunshades available. These sunshades use a reflective, strong (but flexible) material that is ideal for use as a sunshade. And, Sunshades for Rivian R1S consistently perform thorough quality control testing to ensure effectiveness.
Stay Cool
25°F cooler on average. The reflective material in the Sunshades are responsible for dramatic temperature differences in cars parked in the sun. Temperature differences of as much as 40˚F (25˚C) have been measured but you should experience a baseline average temperature reduction of about 25˚F (11˚C).
Custom Fit
Fits like a glove. Sunshades are all about accuracy. It’s computer-driven cutting machines are capable of producing a precise fit for the Rivian R1S. These sunshades are also designed to slightly overlap the windshield frame to maximize coverage and/or to allow the sun visors to have more material to hold on to.
Durable
Strong and Simple. These sunshades are stiff enough to be supported by the sun visors alone, but also flexible enough to be bent around the rearview mirror. Unroll the sunshade across dash, lift it into place, and drop your sun visors. For storage, roll up and secure with a special VELCRO® strap.

How are Sunshades made?

In order to fit properly, these sunshades must be bent around my rearview mirror. Will this harm my sunshades?
Bending your sunshades to fit around your mirror is all a part of the simple installation process. The sunshades are designed to fit around the rearview mirror in order to block out as much sunlight as possible.
Which side faces out?
The shiny, reflective side faces out. In other words, the silver or gold side.
Does the sunshade block UV rays?
The sunshades material is designed to reflect the sun away and it does keep harmful UV rays from penetrating and damaging the dashboard, electronics, upholstery and can keep your Rivian R1S up to 40 percent cooler.
How should I store my sunshades?
We suggest you store the sunshades rolled up—NOT folded. Folding the Sunshade could compromise the integrity of the material and may cause premature wear.
Do you have patterns for side and rear window sunshades?
Yes, we have side and rear window patterns for the Rivian R1S. Simply select from the pull-down menu (above the orange "Add to Cart" button) which specific sunshade you'd like to order or simply choose the complete sunshade set.
What is the recommended way to get the suction cups on sunshades to best affix to the windows?
It can help to install the suction cups with the doors closed or to hold the door while installing to make a solid connection. We've heard of customers wetting the suction cups for better suction. Also, try to press directly behind the suction cup in order to get a firm grip/suction on the window too.
My sunshades are curled up a bit, is there a way to get them to flatten a bit?
You might want to roll the sunshades in the opposite direction if they have been rolled up for a while. This will help to flatten out the sunshades and make them easier to install and fit better against the windows. Storing them rolled backward every once in a while will also help with this.
I'd like to order a unique combination of sunshades not offered in the pull-down menu above, what do I do?
Simply select the individual sunshade option you'd like and select the "Add to Cart" button. Next, you'll be able to view your shopping cart to confirm your selection.
