Window Shades / Curtains

I am working on a DIY conversion of a Ford E series van and was wondering if anyone could point me to any shades / curtains i could use for the rear doors as well as the side door windows.

Thanks

Mike

I don't have first hand experience with any of these companies, but if you Google "day night shades" it will bring up a list of vendors.

Re: Window Shades / Curtains

i did get the day night shades for my (passenger) van. i also found the retro-fit moldings that go around the windows. ELKHART plastics comes to mind, but i dont really remember. The moldings changes the shape of the window shape from trapezoid to rectangel. The shades came forma place in Indiana....they are kind of hard to deal with, but very nice people (hard to get exactly what you want). i'll look around for the contact info if you are still interested....

Re: Window Shades / Curtains

thanks for all the tips

found reflectix at lowes. Seems to be the best choice right now. Keeps the sun and eyes out and is easy to mount and take off. Added some velcro and voila
