ABSTRACT:
A light-blocking and wind deflector device, similar to a pair of sunshades, which is adapted for use in vehicles having transparent side members, such as side glass windows or windshields. The device includes a shield in the form of a relatively stiff and generally flat sheet having sufficient opacity to serve as a light filtering medium for rear view mirrors attached to each side of the vehicle and to serve as a wind deflector. A preferred material for the sheet is a sheet of polarized plastic having a thickness of approximately 1/8 of an inch and a minimum area of about 64 square inches. A pair of shields are affixed to the side windows of a vehicle by a rectangular flange portion forming a part of each shield which portion is adapted to be inserted into the aperture into which a side window retracts, the aperture being in between the side window and the inner edge of the door. Each shield is positioned at a side window such that it blocks wind as well as a portion of any light reflected from an external rear view mirror.
