In my gasser I had the Prompt Shades, they were OK, when I got the pusher the window is higher up, I found the RV Quickshades, they attach on the inside with suction cups, have not had a problem with them and they are very easy to install.
Happy RVing

I see the guys in the parks using a sewing machine, but I assume that is a specialty machine for the purpose.
Thanks i sewed them on a regular sewing machine, but a good one. i used 3/4 aluminum bar from home depot to go in the pockets, and bungee cord to pull the sides back to small metal brackets that i made that hook on the windows. looks great and we really like them. the material is not that bad to sew.

Prompt Screen... Works great. You gotta shut the front curtians after dark or entertain the people walking by.
We shut our curtians after dusk.

Darn - some days there is just nothing on TV and you go and end any hope of entertainment!

For you inside users try a custom roller shade made out of the mesh that fits across the whole windshield from the inside. It can also be used as a sun visor when pulled down part way. Companies like Home Depot, Lowes and blind shops can get them at a reasonable price. If you want you can get multi drop units from the RV combo shade makers like Carefree and others.
Remember the side with the least light can see through the screens. That is why you can see in the RV through the shade at night. We have seen a few things we did not want to when walking back to the RV at night and some RV with the screens had the light on inside and did not close the curtain.

We put ours inside, because we're sick and tired of stowing dirty things in our compartments, when it's time to go. Also, much easier to pull down a screen, then to get one out, and attach it to the outside.

WE have Prompt RV screen and it works well, I would recommend it. Good product and nice people to deal with. I really like the fact that I did not have to drill any holes in my MH.
