where to buy SUCKER CAPS


Hi Everyone , I am putting car sunvisors on some of the windows and need suction caps. I have been to bunnings and they have none. I have looked on ebay and can only be bought when you buy an item to go with them. Do you know where I can get them? thanks.

Hi Reglynn, When it is summer is the Velcro that is attached to the van easy to get off without leaving a mark? thanks. Rocket.

Try Clarke Rubber Stores, I've bought some from there in the past thay have a pretty good range of sizes and types. Other than that try a $2 shop they sometimes have cheap products that use suction cups that you might be able to adapt.

  We used the velcro on rear side windows of the wagon.

For the van we used plastic clamps from the $2 shop which holds the shades on well,we also used there shades as well to, they have ones with foam on one side, so it will not scratch your windows.

I have shields for all of my car's windows. I have used the clear suction cups from the cheap shops but they lose their rigidity and soon flatten out from the heat. I have changed back to the rubber caps from Clark Rubber @ $2.00 each. These last a very long time but I worry about lifting of the tint film from the glass, so far so good after five years.

I make my own solar shades and use these suction cups, quick delivery, good quality (my first purchase are 3 years old now) I also use to hang keys or whatever from the inside fibreglass lining of our 5th wheeler.

Not the cheapest but made in the good ole USA.
