I gave my almost new Prompt RV Sunshades away. You still needed a ladder to install the front windshield screen, and the side covers were NEVER tight...couldn't get them tight, and they flapped in the wind. Most people that like the Prompts only have the front windshield cover....but the sides are horrible, and you are covering up the stretched rubber straps....very unsightly and you cant keep the side covers taught.....

I got the Sunguards which use stainless steel snaps and the front AND the sides snap on tight.....and I can install these MUCH faster than the horrible Prompts!

EDIT: The Sunguard material is 85% vs 70% (Prompts) and is a much better fiberglass material.

No one has mentioned MCD.
I like Motor Coach Designs (MCD), because that is what I have.

Not mentioned because most of us are not millionaires. Their products are the most overpriced in the RV industry.

Do not get inside sun screens. I assume that you have drapes or whatever they are called. You need to keep the heat outside. We have the snap on type. they stay tight in bad weather. Works for us. They take 5 minutes to put on, well after cleaning the bugs off.

Good luck

Go to the site that "DRSCUD" linked for us. You can get inside sunscreens w/ any % sunblock you want. Nice products, no grime, no fuss, no STORAGE problems.
