Last fall, I made
this post regarding custom window covers my wife and I built for our rig, an EB passenger van (11 windows, not including the windshield!)
Since then, our family of four has had the chance to use our covers in widely varying conditions, all while making tweaks to the design based on our experiences.
At last, we're ready to offer our custom-fit

- Backing magnets provided for use with factory plastic surrounds
- Light & Privacy Feature (Peek-a-Boo Top Panel) is a no-cost option on all covers

I realize that some people may have sticker shock at first glance. As anyone who has built their own window covers will tell you, a lot of time and effort goes into making these covers. We are not out to make a fortune on these, nor are we competing for bottom dollar. We feel our covers are fairly priced based on the time and materials used to build them, and we will stand behind the quality of our covers.
At this time, our listings only cover OEM passenger and cargo window sizes. If you are interested in a custom size/application, please contact us directly. We have a system you can use to create a template directly from your own van, which we can then build to your exact requirements. We can also perform other customizations (fabric color/type, contrast stitching, thicker insulation, etc.)--just reach out and let us know what you have in mind.
All window covers are handmade to order in Longmont, Colorado, so lead times will be quoted at the time you place your order. Please keep this in mind, these are not "off the shelf"!
Last but not least: we have other products in the works (including a windshield cover) and welcome any/all feedback!
