Anything you can put INSIDE on the windows will work the SAME WAY as if you put them on the outside.....and more importantly WHY would anyone put anything on the outside of their RV on their windows. :R...
Actually, I tried it both ways and I still have the inside versions on the three overhead cab windows because they're pretty much permanent and stay in place when I'm traveling.
But, the outside versions prevented the glass and especially the black aluminum frame from heating up. On a 100 degree day, the frame was ambient temperature when the shade was exterior, but it was too hot to touch if the shade was inside. That heat from the hot glass and aluminum radiated throughout the inside of the coach not to mention what was happening to the rubber seals.
Of course the downside is, the sun and wind ate them up in a couple of years.
