Anybody ever add Carefree (or other mfgrs.) power sunshades to an older coach? If so, where did you obtain the power shades? And cost, if you don't mind.

I added one to my last coach...as I recall it was a couple hundred bucks for the shade...ran wire behind front cabinet and down windshield post to fuse block

A company in Tampa, called RV Medic, installed them in our last coach, at the SEA FMCA Rally in Brooksville. It was around $500 for the pair installed.

I got mine from Dennis at D&T Sales. His prices were the best I found and fast shipping. Give him call at 1-800-209-2962 he was very helpful.

I had one already on the Drivers side but added one for DW - picked it up from RV Salvage and Spares in Elkhart - they also do mail order. Got the switch at the same time and paid $40 - a lot cheaper than $275 for a new one and it's perfect.
They do mail order if you call them.
