New window shades

Despite the bad review, the ones I found seem a pretty small gamble at less than $100. Certainly better than what I have as the liner is literally turning to dust. It's almost like they are lined with tissue paper.

MCDs are very expensive if you're not sure you'll be keeping your RV long.

What I did on one of our previous coaches, is bought pretty, block out, lined curtains, that I could put on the existing track.

I got them at JC Penny, and cut and sewed them to the correct length. With a bit of the extra material, I made tiebacks for them. Then, just bought different slider hooks, and put them in place.

If you just want a simple, easy replacement, that's an inexpensive way to go. If you can't do the hemming yourself, it's an easy job for a seamstress.

Due to the structure of our front cabin, I had to order 6 of the United Roller Block Out shades. They are not cheap, but our coach is our home, and we move usually once a week, so we did ours for convenience.

They were a pain in backside to close, as the pleats were pretty weak, they get discolored over time, and the grommets at the top have a tendency to pull out of the fabric with alot use.

There are a few aftermarket install reviews online if you search.

I would not recommend them.

I am not sure how long we will keep our current MH and the curtain lining is falling apart> thinking this would be a cheap replacement until we sell it - if we do.

Do they work on the same I beam roller track as standard fabric curtains?

I've seen MCD, are they expensive to install yourself?
