Automatic Rear Side Window Sunshades?

Motivology · 02-09-2021, 10:10 PM

I have been on the look out for 13/14 M5's. One thing I noticed is the rear side window sunshades are manual. Is there an automatic version of this?

I used to have an 2015 640i xDrive GC and it had automatic rear window & side window shades - which was awesome. Does this option exists in M5's? I know the rear window is automatic, but the side windows?

I tried searching with no luck.

Rear side window sunshades were only available in manual form in the F10.

So there is no such kit or aftermarket kit that will make it automatic?

Unfortunately not, the F1x series never offered electric sunshades in the rear doors. You might be able to retrofit a 7 series kit, but it's far from plug&play!

The only F10's that I have seen the automatic side shades are the long wheel base versions in China...skip to 1:18 in the video below
