Abstract
A sunroof sunshade assembly is provided for a vehicle that include spaced apart guide rails supported by a vehicle. The sunroof sunshade includes a frame including opposing lateral portions slidingly received in the guide rail with the lateral portions having a first thickness. An interior portion is integrally formed with the frame by a plastic injection molding process. The interior portion extends between the lateral portions with a plurality of tiny holes in a desired pattern and has a second thickness that is less than the first thickness to provide a simulated fabric mesh appearance. A finger cup may be formed in the frame to provide a recess by which a vehicle occupant may move the sunshade between the open and closed positions.
