Despite having a special dark factory coating on the roof glass panel in the Tesla Model Y, even in 70-degree weather, you'll feel the strong effects of the sun on the big glass bubble that is the Model Y. Even with the latest and greatest Llumar IRX Ceramic Tint all the way around, and Llumar Air 80 on the windshield, the car was still a giant heat bubble with the glass roof not covered. Many tint places refuse to tint the roof panel as apparently the tint can cause heat to not release from the glass and crack it.
So my experience with this particular Interior Sunshade 2.0 (Amazon link to buy) has been excellent. All products on my blog are things I own, use, and back. Fitment is great, no gaps. No noises, no rattles, no squeaks. Work the install by doing one half at a time and learning how the clips fit in. My driver's side roof panel was tight against the glass so I had to work in a plastic pry tool to create just enough space to press the clip in. We're talking like one millimeter. Luckily the rest of the roof panel perimeter had adequate space. Your results may vary depending on how your car was assembled. I won't say the hot head feeling is 100% eliminated, but it's about 80% eliminated. The trade off for being able to see out the roof glass.
No light gaps
