    Going rate for E34 rear door sun blinds? Also electric rear blind

    Hi all,

    Found some unicorn poo and am looking for ballpark values on them so I can try to make them mine.

    E34 sedan rear door sun blind kit in great condition, all in tact with clips, door cards, etc.
    E34 sedan electric rear sun blind kit, all looms, switch, etc.

    I found an old Ebay listing from the US for a sun blind kit for the doors and it was around $US450 - seem right?

    Thanks!

    are slow
    People will pay what they pay, $500 doesn't seem out of question.

    "Make Offer" button is great.

    Often the original electric rear blind weak toothed wheel in the gear is broken, I have good quality strong steel toothed wheels and enforcement bushes for repair on stock, also fits the electric gear drive for sunblinds for some Mercedes Benz and Audi models, details here

    If they have the quarter window blinds, get them at whatever the price. They are unobtainium. I had a set with one of them broken. I was going to try to epoxy it back together when a guy from Sweden saw that I had a set quite a while before. He had been scouring the interweb looking for a set.

    I have a set of rear door blinds on my car which have deteriorated pull tabs. As you can imagine I'm not having much luck finding suitable stock looking replacements...

    I was told the rear quarter sunblind for the left side was NLA. I was also told that the right one will ship in early 2018. If anyone has rear quarter blinds (in black) they want to sell I am interested. My car originally had them. And I can speak to the repair shogun sells. Worked like a charm on my electric unit.

    The parts are so rare it is a question with no known good answer. Just be sure you are getting all the fixin's so the installation doesn't get stalled hunting down missing parts. Have a look at RealOEM to verify you are getting everything necessary, and if something like a seemingly obscure connector is missing make sure it's available.

    Where did you find them ? I am missing the quarter blinds and small cover pieces. If you are looking to just retrofit that would break my heart

    The intention is to retrofit them, thanks for all the advice.

    They are all complete with all fixings and the quarter blinds are thankfully in perfect condition with tabs.
