Default Window covers RT 210 Help!

HI
I think I remember*a post by a person* who makes window cover/ inserts for* the three upper windows of the Roadtrek ???? I have searched the archieve and the web but can not find that person/company anywhere. Does anyone have* a contact for that person?
RT 210 popular 2008 chevy
Or did I just dream that someone makes the inserts?Thanks for any help.

I made my covers out of mylar reflective material.
Blocks out the light, keeps inside cooler.
Also made inserts for all of the windows.
Noticable difference in temps in the summer.

I too made my own


I bought a roll of reflectix at home depot and cut to size


covers for my front and rear side doors, and used smaller pieces for the top windows ( 2 in a Pleasure Way)


make a huge difference for heat and light


I also put some on the floor between the seats under our dog's bed to shield the motor heat.

I made Reflectix covers but a Facebook member said the upper windows get way too hot and could break. I checked them during the summer and almost burnt my hand.
I have since removed them

Interesting.... We currently have shades with foil insulation .
But, I'll keep a eye on them. I would not like to crack the windows!
Thanks for the heads up
