How do you install front window drape hardware?

Hi

We have a 2014 bounder and it came with a motorized black vinyl front shade that really creates an oven for our poor animals on a hot day. The screens on the side windows aren't bad but would really like to do the curtains you see in so many Class A's. Only problem is there isn't anyone in our park with these and we aren't sure how the curtains are hung? Are they on an ibeam? What kind of brackets?

Thanks for any help.

    The older coaches have a channel where the hooks for the curtain are. The pleated shades are on the hooks. Newer RVs have motorized shades on front on a mount. They are custom made for the coach.

    To keep things cool when you are parked, I would get external windshield covers. They will keep the coach cooler since they stop the sun from coming in the coach. Personally, I really like my Magneshades. They are held on by strong magnets so you do not need to make holes in the coach. They are also very easy to take on and off. You do not need a ladder.
