Re. Chucks window shade / valance / curtain treatment.

COOL idea, Roger!  I like the versatile mounting system.  ^.^d 

They must have sold a lot of those fans - we have similar ones in our coach (mounted in the "traditional" manner by a PO).  Only complaint I have is they are kinda noisy/buzzy when running (especially right next to your ear), but they DO move the air pretty good.  We use them to augment the front roof air when driving on hot days (our dash air is M.I.A.)  I can't remember the brand name...

 Is there a thread that covers the LR remodel of your coach. Specifically  the shades and trim. The colors blend perfectly for me and would be my choices

Bob & Sue,

Funny you should say that, because the room-darkening shades and the window valance covers are about the only original factory trim items left in our coach (other than the walnut wood, of course).  We REALLY liked the colors in those items from the moment we first saw them.  The previous owners, John & Genni Kerbs, had all the furniture recovered, and tried to match the window shades/valances.  Did a great job, I think.  Then we tore out the BLUE carpet, and installed new carpet and vinyl tile.  We tried to choose colors that would coordinate with the shades, valances, and upholstery.  It took us FOREVER to find something we liked, but we finally did.

If you go to our profile page, there is a link to our SmugMug page.  Lots of photos there showing gradual metamorphose of coach.
