    because they offered them for access cab rear windows.

    Pros.
    They're well made and custom so the windshield & front windows are a pretty good fit. The front shades are sized so that they stay in place without suction cups.
    Cons.
    Though the rear shades fit they aren't really tight so have a tendency to eventually fall out. Not really necessary either since the tint on the rear is so dark.

    I've got a Covercraft and it does work well it's bulk is the only downside like you said. The Cc does take slightly more effort to use, I have to unfold it apply and I always have to move my rearview when putting up and taking it down.

    I also have a Weathertec which is soft and rolls up, I can't recall disturbing the rearview with that one. It worked well imo.

    It's going to be a bit harder now for me to put up my windshield sunshade. My dashboard Jesus will be a bit difficult to allow such.
