If you own a Camry, the model year decides which windshield sunshade fits, not the trim and not whether it is a Hybrid. Toyota has sold four Camry generations in the U.S. since 2007, and the glass, mirror area and driver-assist hardware changed along the way. This guide maps every year from 2007 to 2026 to the right Proadsy page, explains how our three 2018–2026 styles differ, and covers setup, storage and returns.
Step 1: Find your model year
Your model year is on the driver-door jamb sticker and on your registration. Then use this table.
| Model years (U.S.) | Camry generation | Start here |
|---|---|---|
| 2007–2011 | 6th generation (XV40) | 2007–2011 Toyota Camry Windshield Sunshade |
| 2012 | 7th generation (XV50), first year | We do not currently list a shade for 2012. Email us before you buy anything. |
| 2013–2017 | 7th generation (XV50) | 2013–2017 Toyota Camry Windshield Sunshade |
| 2018–2024 | 8th generation (XV70) | Our 2018–2026 listings. See Step 3 for the three styles. |
| 2025–2026 | 9th generation (XV80), hybrid only | Our 2018–2026 listings. See Step 3 for the three styles. |
The “Start here” column follows the model years printed on each of our product listings (checked 2026-10-30). The generation column is background from Toyota’s U.S. newsroom and Wikipedia (sources at the end). It helps you place your car, but the year range on the product page is what decides the fit.
Step 2: Check the edges of each range
- 2012 vs. 2013: the 2012 Camry was the first year of the 7th generation, but our listing starts at 2013. A 2012 owner should email us instead of guessing.
- 2017 vs. 2018: 2018 was an all-new Camry, so a 2013–2017 shade is not the one for a 2018. Pick a page whose range includes 2018.
- 2011 vs. 2012: the 2007–2011 shade belongs to the 6th-generation car only.
- Years before 2007: we do not currently list a Camry windshield shade for them.
Step 3: What is behind your mirror?
A custom shade has to work around the rearview mirror and whatever sits behind it, so it helps to know what your Camry has there.
- 2018 and newer: Toyota made its Toyota Safety Sense driver-assist suite standard on the 2018 Camry, and the 2025 Camry comes with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 as standard. Toyota’s owner’s manual places the front camera for these systems at the top of the windshield, by the rearview mirror. Expect a camera housing on every 2018–2026 Camry.
- 2013–2017: for the 2017 model year, Toyota offered Pre-Collision, Dynamic Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert and Auto High Beam as part of an optional Technology Package, so these cars vary. Take a look behind your mirror before you order.
- Head-up display: the 2018 Camry offered an available 10-inch color head-up display that projects onto the lower part of the windshield. A sunshade only goes up while you are parked, so it does not affect the display while you drive. The 2018–2026 listings name LE, SE, XLE, XSE and Hybrid trims.
If your mirror area has a module you are not sure about, email support@proadsy.com with your year, trim and a photo of the area behind the mirror. We will check the cutout before your order ships.
Step 4: 2018 and newer Camry: foldable, umbrella or Ice Crystal?
If your car is in the 2018–2026 range, you can choose from three separate products. Each one is its own shade with its own page. They are not versions of one listing.
| Foldable | Umbrella | Ice Crystal | |
|---|---|---|---|
| How it opens | Twist-fold spring-steel frame springs open | Opens like an umbrella, in about 3 seconds | Framed shade on a steel ring frame that folds down like the foldable |
| Fabric | Premium silver-coated reflective fabric | Ice-crystal fabric | Ice-crystal fabric with 600,000+ reflective micro-crystals |
| Stays up by | Edge tension against the glass, with both sun visors down | Handle hooks over the mirror stem, with both sun visors down | Edge tension against the glass, with both sun visors down |
| Stores in | Included storage sleeve | Included storage sleeve | Included storage pouch |
| Good pick if you | Want a flat-folding shade for daily parking | Want quick one-hand on and off | Prefer the darker reflective face with a framed fit |
Our 2018–2026 foldable and umbrella listings rate those shades to cut dashboard surface temperature by up to 54°F. Full specs for each shade are on its product page. The 2007–2011 and 2013–2017 Camrys come in the foldable style only for now.
Torn between two of them? The foldable and the Ice Crystal shade fold and stay up the same way. The difference is the reflective face. If you want the classic silver face, go with the foldable Camry shade. If you would rather have the umbrella’s one-hand setup with the same ice-crystal fabric, choose the umbrella shade.

Putting it up
- Foldable or Ice Crystal: take the shade out of its sleeve or pouch and let the frame spring open, pointing it away from your face. Set the bottom edge on the dash and press the top against the glass, with the mirror cutout around the mirror stem. Then flip both sun visors down.
- Umbrella: open it inside the car, rest the canopy against the glass and hook the handle over the mirror stem. Then flip both sun visors down.
- Smooth the edges out to the pillars so the shade sits flat against the glass.
Taking it down and storing it
- Before you drive, always take the shade down. It is for parked use only, and your camera and head-up display need clear glass.
- Foldable or Ice Crystal: fold it back the way it came out of the box, then slide it into the sleeve or pouch. Our folding guide walks through the twist step by step.
- Umbrella: close it like an umbrella and put it in its sleeve.
- Keep it in a door bin, a seat-back pocket or under a seat so it never rides loose on the dash.
A quick checklist before you order
- Confirm your model year on the door-jamb sticker or registration.
- Match it to the table in Step 1.
- Look behind your mirror (Step 3).
- If you drive a 2018–2026 Camry, choose a style (Step 4).
- If your year is 2012, sits on the edge of a range or is not listed, email support@proadsy.com with your year and trim, and we will check before it ships.
FAQ
What size sunshade does a Toyota Camry need?
A custom-fit shade is cut for a specific range of model years, not for one universal width. That is why you will not find a single “Camry size” here. Instead, you choose the page for your year range in Step 1.
Will a 2017 Camry shade fit my 2018?
No. 2018 started a new generation, and the two are separate listings with separate patterns.
I have a 2025 or 2026 Camry. Which page do I use?
Our 2018–2026 foldable, umbrella and Ice Crystal listings all include the 2025 and 2026 model years. Choose the style you like in Step 4.
Do I need a different shade for the Camry Hybrid?
No. Hybrid Camrys appear on the same pages as the gas Camrys of the same year. From 2025, every Camry is a hybrid.
Will the shade get in the way of the camera or head-up display?
Only if you leave it up while you drive, and you should never do that. The shade is for parked use. Take it down before you drive so the camera and display have clear glass.
Can I drive with the shade up?
No. Use it only while parked.
What if it doesn’t fit?
See below. We will exchange it for the correct one.
