Tesla Model 3 Sunshade Roof 2017-2020 - Glass Roof Heat Shield

Our review of the BASENOR glass roof sunshade for Tesla Model 3 (2017-2020) finds it best for owners who want a practical, easy way to keep the cabin cooler and protected from UV while parked. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of an encrypted mesh sunshade and reflective skylight covers that noticeably reduce interior heat and block UV. Installation is simple and quick, and the set stores in a compact bag, making it a convenient accessory for everyday use.

Key Features

• Precision Fit: Designed and tested specifically for 2017-2020 Model 3 roofs to provide a near-flush coverage without altering factory glass.
• Encrypted Mesh Fabric: The upgraded mesh fabric improves shading and heat insulation, helping to keep the cabin temperature down on hot days.
• Skylight Reflective Covers: Reflects sunlight away from the interior and blocks up to 99% of harmful UV rays for better sun protection.
• Robust Construction: Built with a foldable manganese steel frame, sunshade net, and reflective cloth for durability and repeated use.
• Quick Installation: Clips secure the shades in place in about 2 minutes, and the included storage bag keeps them compact when not in use.
• Rear Visibility Design: The V-shaped rear window panel preserves rearview visibility while shading the rear glass area.

Who It's For

This sunshade is ideal for Tesla Model 3 owners with vehicles from model years 2017 through 2020 who want straightforward sun and heat management without permanent modifications. It suits people who park outdoors frequently in sunny climates and value an accessory that folds away for daily driving.

Shoppers with Model 3 units from 2021 onward should look for a shade made for the later roof geometry, and buyers who need a permanently mounted or fully rigid sunroof cover may prefer a hard-panel solution instead.
