Munchkin Brica Magnetic Stretch-to-Fit Car Window Shade, Black — 14–18 in. Expandable Mesh, 5 Magnets

The Munchkin Brica Magnetic Stretch-to-Fit Sun Shade is a flexible, magnet-attaching side-window cover that stretches to fit a wide range of vehicle windows while preserving visibility and airflow.

Keep sunlight and glare from bothering little passengers without sacrificing fresh air or view. This single-pack, black mesh shade starts at 14 x 28 inches and expands to 18 x 34 inches, using sewn-in hoops and hooks to tailor the fit to smaller or angled windows. Five built-in magnets secure to compatible metal door frames so you can install or remove the shade quickly for errands, everyday drives, or road trips.

How does this shade adapt to different window sizes and shapes?

The shade is engineered to stretch and trim itself down so it works on many side windows. Elasticized edges expand to a larger size and the hoops-to-hooks system lets you gather extra fabric to fit narrow or slanted panes.

• Expandable from 14 x 28 inches up to 18 x 34 inches for broad coverage.
• Hoops attach to internal hooks to reduce excess fabric on smaller windows.
• Flexible construction conforms to curved or awkward window frames.

Will it stay on my car and still allow the window to move?

Yes — five embedded magnets fasten to metal door frames for a secure hold and the shade is designed so the window can roll down while installed. Verify your vehicle’s door frame is magnetic before buying, since the magnets require a metal surface to attach.

• Five magnets secure the shade to compatible metal frames for simple setup.
• Window operation is preserved; you can lower the pane with the shade in place.
• Not suitable for vehicles with non-magnetic door materials — test with a household magnet first.

How much sun and glare does the mesh block while keeping visibility?

The Safe View Mesh balances sun protection with outward visibility: it reduces glare and filters UVA/UVB rays while allowing passengers to see outside. The mesh design helps maintain situational awareness and reduces the closed-in feeling of solid shades.

• Open-weave mesh reduces brightness and glare without fully obscuring the view.
• Helps lower UV-A/UV-B exposure inside the vehicle compared to no shade.
• Allows light and outlines through so children can still watch the surroundings.

How is the Munchkin Brica shade different from other car window covers?

Who is this for? Families, caregivers, and anyone transporting children who want a quick, adaptable solution to reduce sun and glare on side windows without blocking airflow or visibility. It’s ideal for vehicles with magnetic door frames where parents need a convenient, reusable shade that installs in seconds and customizes to window shape for everyday driving and longer trips.
