Nope. We have the internal night shade. Keeps outside eyes outside.

That works! Just letting them know that without that, it could be a little embarrassing!

We are looking forward to no longer having to choose between fishbowl and cave! We accomplished the 'initial' install yesterday. It is supposed to be warm tis week so next weekend we'll affix the magnets permanently.

The instructions mention rolling the screen around a pool noodle for storage, is this what you all do?

We've enjoyed our magna shade several years all over the country...never had any wind concern. Walkers in nearly every RV park stop and look at our shade and many ask where to get one. If we were on commission our shade would be paid for. Certainly one of our best improvements.

Today we installed our new MagnaShade. Step one completed. The shade is on the rig, we are expecting warm weather here for the next week so we'll let it sit this weeks and do the final magnet placement next week. Fit is good, I m looking forward to our first trip out with this new accessory. I think i should have done this a couple years ago. It will be nice to have reasonable privacy while having light and visibility unlike using the night curtain. No more dark cave feeling!

You may want to have someone else install them. Been there done that (twice).

Thanks. Do have some friends that will help.

Maybe because of the way I framed my question about wind and losing a shade. Ours will be an external install. We do have a couple of hotspots that we need to block sun outside. We already have solar and blackout MCD shades on all windows.

A bit surprised no one has mentioned but you can install the shade on the inside of the coach. Doesn't work very well blocking heat but during cooling months of the year that might not be a bad problem but you'll still have the privacy the shape provides.
