Pics of the 'centre (under the rear view mirror) sun shade'?
Hi,

Not sure if I have one of these, but have seen it referenced in several threads.

Does anyone have any pics of the centre (under the rear view mirror) sun shade ?

Thanks,

Harty

Not the best picture of the centre sun visor but at least you can see where it is. Current vehicle: 2020 Defender 110S

Was this only available on earlier MYs or certain specs?

Yes IIRC it was discontinued at the same time as the sunglasses holder disappeared. My 2020 D240 had both the centre sunshade and the sunglasses holder, my 2023 HSE D250 90 has neither. The sunglasses holder is available aftermarket but I haven’t seen the centre small Sun shade being made aftermarket yet Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

I had a my2021 demonstrator for a while which had the small sun visor and the sun glasses holder, mine is a my2022 and it has the sun glasses holder but not small sun visor, the sun glasses holder was eventually removed on most my2023 cars and hasn't re-appeared Confused Cheers Ian

Mine's a 2020, so obviously a fairly early one. I guess the sun visor deletion was a consequence of the chip shortage. Rolling with laughter

Seriously though, while I find the sunglasses holder very useful I've hardly ever used the middle sun visor. Current vehicle: 2020 Defender 110S

Here's a screenshot of a center visor from a random YouTube review. Funny little thing. My '22 D90 didn't come with one, but based on this review some '22s did.

I had it on my MY20 D240 SE but not on my My23 D300 HSE.

Same as the sunglasses holder. "Overlanding With Bruce" - Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@OverlandingwithBruce
