What color is your interior? I have a blue one...
 






I find I use mine in the summer to keep the sun out and in the winter I remove it to let the sun in.
By the way stock they came with a black vinyl bag that the cover fit into and also a mesh net for the back cargo area. The moon roof and shield both fit into the bag when you remove them for full roof open air flow. (Hint the bag fits behind the back seat backs and the fold down floor covers)
 






nav came with them as well they came with a bag for the moon roof. i found mine in a junk yard stripped it down and replaced the fabric personally i do not like the sun shining down on me so it never comes out unless i'm wheelin with the moon roof off. it was a u pull it yard and only ran me 2$

if you go the junk yard route and ever want to take off your moon roof i suggest picking up a spare set of hinges.. :) it stinks when you strip out a hinge and need to put the moon roof back on asap..
 






Thanks for posting about the sushade, although 6 years have past. My sunshade no longer latches to the moonroof glass. I can't tell it is the male or female end of the knob you push up and twist that is the problem. Can someone post a close up photo of the latch, the knob male end on the shade, and the female latch receiver attached to the glass? Ideas of where I can get a new latch or this one repaired?
