Default custom fit sun shade

Hi,
I`m new here.
I owned A4, before.
2018 Q7 3.0 night black is my second audi!

Since this car for my family, I`d like to install sunshade for my kids.
I don`t have warm weather package.

I found below sun shade after long earch.

Since it is shipping from UK, I want to make sure it will fit.
Even though, I checked window/frame/instruction several times, I have no idea how to install it.
Especially step 3 and 4,

Is there anyone who installed this product?
Any other recommends ?

I just picked up some random windshield + 2 side shades (they had standard and large versions) from Costco (they unfold and expand) for $13 didn't try yet.
Can you tell us if you bought the side shades, can you share some pictures? If they are really perfect fit for sides, I might just buy those instead. Thanks.

Not sure what the side shields are,
the Heatshield covers entire windshield; I had front side windows tinted so that helps and it’s a Prestige trim, so has Manual rear and cargo door shades

For some reason I thought you were answering in reply to OP's question about sides.
Heatshield store sells side shields:

Thank you for sharing your concerns.

I’m looking for shades which is icludede in hot weather package. Since I want to get rid of new car smell, I didn’t tint, yet.

I ordered the product through the Ebay.
I’ll share some pics after I receive. Shipping takes 2wks from UK to US. lol.

For heatshield, in the parking lot, I’m using Costco’s one, too. I’d like to change to custom fit one, like above link, soon.

I like these shades a lot. If they fit like the ones I had on a GTI, there are clips that slide into the door/window trim and the shades snap into/behind the clips. They custom fit nicely and looked oem- i think mine were, and i ordered them from Germany at the time.
I think I’ll see if they have a set for a B9 S4.

Received sunshade.
Little bit confused the direction of clip, hopefully I installed correctly.
Otherwise I have no idea how windows are closed.
Fit very well, definitely worth to wait for a long time.

Yes, this is the correct way to fit the clip.
