retractable rear window shade

i was a little hesitant on posting this thread but is there a way to mod up a retractable window shade from a Q45,i haven't seen any in the junkyard so i haven't been able to get in and measure and see what makes/ how it works.Keep in mind its just a thought not a full blown IM GONNA DO IT!!!!!! Please refrain from the negative banter theres enough of that on this site. Im just thinking of doing something different is all thanks in advance

seriously, though, it's a great idea.
Recently, a guy put one in his SC300. I think it's brilliant.

IIRC, people were doing it to 5th gen Maxima's, using parts from the I35's that came equipped with the power rear sunshade

I put INFINITI G20 sunvisors in my 3rd gen. Love em.

I bought a rear seat cover from an .org member. It came with an INFINITI Q45 armrest that is a direct replacement to the 3G one and also opens up with compartments inside. Its cool as hell.

the more INFINITI mods the better. What years/models/etc are you looking at? This would be awesome addition.

Here are a few pictures from ebay from someone selling one out of a 2000 I30. Cant tell if it mounts to the rear deck or underneath the headliner?
