Rear roller shade models

Does anyone have the rear roller shade which has a vertical mast centered in reference to the back glass, which the screen slides up an down on?

I ran across this Youtube video which has this type of shade unit.

Do you guys like the two arm or the single vertical mast style?

I have a rear shade for one of my W124 coupes with the vertical mast, but I have never installed it. I thought I was missing a piece so I went to my local MB dealer and they did not have the diagram to this style of rear sun shade unit.
 
I am not familiar with that style of sun shade on the W124 - I have only seen the style used that is on the .036.

I am very familiar with that style of sun shade on the C126, as my example has one.

Generally, I have found the center-bar style of sun shade as used on my C126 to be of inferior design and operation to the "dual-arm" type used on the .036.

Cheers,
Gerry
