I was not the person who asked but do have a question... Are these covers transparent from the inside (can you see out but not in)?

We just had a set made for ours. What a huge difference it has made in the Arizona heat!
It also gives us privacy and still be able to see out.

Hi Ron yes you see out but not in during the day, but at night It's just the opposite with it dark out side.

Thanks, Mitch Sayer

I have one of these. It's great at helping to keep inside temps cool. I would recommend one to anyone in a hot climate for sure. The only ting I don't like about it is it's hard to get really clean. I've even tried bleach. It got dirty when I was parked at a job site for a while and no matter what I try I can't get it back to the crisp white it was.

Andyr, I use Super Clean Degreaser from Auto Zone @ 10.99 gal to get my white one clean, work great put it on and let it soak for a few minutes and rinse off.  I lay it out on my patio to do the job that way I get the patio clean to.

We too have the Sunguard brand screens but ours attach to the inside of the windshield with Velcro. The industrial strength Velcro loop side was attached to the rubber gasket and has been in place since 2009. It shows no sign of coming loose.

It is a lot easier to put up the screens with the Velcro from the inside. I don't know how I would put them up on the outside like I did on my U-225. The windows of the U-300 are way to far off the ground. The set for the Grand Villa is two separate windshield screens and two side window screens. If you don't have them I highly recommend the Sunguard screens.
