We have a window awning on the large window over the couch on the drivers side. Love it and use it often. On the Airstream we had and on two of my friends trailers we took a used big awning and cut it down making long off side awning to cover the complete side from the sun. It worked like a std. window awning. Meaning you pulled it down and hooked it to lower it and unhooked and let it go up. Those are great if you spend a lot of time setting in the sun.
I like window awnings far more than tint. Tint thats dark enough to block out the sun just turns your nice light inside into a dark hole often needing lights during a nice day. Awnings give you a chance to choose on the cloudy, darker days. They also let you keep the window open when its raining.
