Windshield cover for 2015 Sprinter

We're picking up our 2015 Leisure Travel Van Unity 24MB (on a Sprinter chassis) in October and will be traveling through Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, etc. Hot country! :C

Any recommendations for an outside cover? Camping World sells a Class C cover that fits Sprinters 2007-2013, but the 2015 model may require something different.

Many advance thanks for thoughts!

  • We had a similar problem when we picked up our 2012 model. Purchased one on line, not sure but I do not think the windshield has changed any on the Sprinter. Our 22 foot is small enough, when using the windshield cover it opens the space, and if you like there are kits that allow you to turn the front seats around, giving you two extra seats in the RV. It takes about one minuet to put on the cover, and it protects the front dash from the sun.
  • If it's just for a night, we will use the curtain that came with the RV. Not a great one by any means. If for a weekend or longer, I will use the outside cover. Our cover has flaps that can be rolled down and during the day, you can't see inside. At night if you have lights on, then yes you can.
  • I started with an outside cover, but there were times when I wanted to see what made that noise in front of me without going outside. Since I don't use the cockpit or overhead bunk for anything when I'm parked, I had a curtain made to cover the opening that attaches with Velcro.

    Check with them...there might not be any difference. When we were looking for one last year for our 2013, there were no listings for 2013. Ended up being the same thing. They will let you return it if it doesn't fit. If you will be near a CW, have them let you go out and try it before you buy it. I know our local CW will let us do it.
