Just wondering if anyone has done this themselves and how difficult it was...I have a 2010 Jamboree sport and it came with a "Shower curtain"..I see the same floor plan on the 2011's comes with a glass door and I would like to convert mine to one...If anyone has any info that would be great....Thanks

I installed a triple shower door a couple months ago. It was manufactured by Irvine Shade and door. Got mine from Tweetys. But their current price is almost $100 more than I paid for mine. When I talked to Irvine they told me that frame can be ordered in silver. Even though I did not find a dealer that sold that color.
Install was not a problem. Opening in shower was wider than shower door. Made a spacer to fill in that area.

I have a 2008 Jamboree 25G and converted from a curtain to an accordian door. Took about half a day and wasn't difficult at all.

Shower doors are very easy to install.
That said, keep the curtain. Shower doors are ultimately a maintenance headache as they age. As the rig shifts going down the road, the hooks at the bottom come out and have to be forced back into the track.
The worst thing that can happen to a shower curtain is that it needs replaced every couple years.

We have the pleated "accordian door" mentioned above. Seems like a good compromise between a curtain and hard doors.

I would suggest you upgrade your curtain for a rolling door or a curtain of better grade. Our RV came with an upgraded glass sliding door. It took me a while to figure out how to quiet the thing down going down the road. I used window A/C foam strips, and had to use Loctite on all the wheels. I should have just yanked it out.

I had a sliding door in mine. Every time I got on the road, the bottom would come off the track and it would just be hanging there when I stopped. I ended up removing it and putting up a regular curtain. With the curtain folded back, it opens up the area and makes it seem bigger now.

What I would like to find is the roll-up shower door I've seen mentioned in the forums a number of times. When I searched for it online I couldn't track one down and I assumed they are no longer made (I think CW used to carry them?). My understanding is that they rolled up to one side and there was a squeegee built in to scrape the water off the wet side as you rolled. Sounded pretty slick to me...but I haven't found one...

We saw them, on I think Winnebago's, last year at a camper show.
