Screen Covers & Blinds

[mhill]

Im nearly there with my bed build and need to sort out some coverings for the windows.

Just tried a set of these Brunner Cli-mats NT VWT5 but the fit was crap, anyone able to suggest some solutions?

Gallant blinds fella, spot on. Just a bit tricky to fit the two press studs to the a pillar. Measure , measure and measure again..

I've just bought another thermal screen that wraps front and both doors, OK mines customised but you can get standard ones less hassle fits in minutes and gives privacy in day if on sites.
we first used one for that back in the 80's when we had a T25 curtains are a pain on the front if you use just them you still get condensation inside but with a thermal blind no condensation and that was 4 up!

We have been using Just Kampers thermal screens for the last 3 years and they have been great.

Going to buy a set of pukka Silver Screens for our T6.

OEM Cali blinds are very good.

The Cali OE blinds are nice but there is a difference between just blinds and thermal screens.

Problem is that thermal screens on the cab area doesn't solve the rest of the windows. The Cali rear windows are double glazed or something which means perhaps that they don't need any thermal assistance?

Nope they don't!
Oooh double glazed safe style? Lol
Probably go for pleated blinds for the sliders but at moment can't source blind for rear, emailed a couple of sites but they can't be arsed to reply. ( two weeks)

We have a couple of threads about blinds going on here. Best you search "blinds" to see what is going on. There are perhaps some solutions around the corner.

Really like the look of these got a cheep solution coming as I need something for this weekend so I'll see how I get on with them (They can go back if not) but I think I'm going to go for a set of these on the sliders VW T5 T6 Tailored Curtain Passenger Side Mid Window Sliding Door - Vanstyle and this VW T5 T6 Tailored Curtain – Cab Seperation - Vanstyle above the cab so it doesn't nessarly look like I'm camping.

Maybe I'm blind or maybe the others are? Perhaps there's nicer ways of saying things that don't come across as jumping down people's neck!
