Sun screen from Carefree

Has anyone mounted one of these on their Bighorn 3670 rear window? If yes did the 6 foot model fit well? Thanks, Steve http://tweetys.com/sunshades.aspx

I'm pretty sure that Byrd and Nathan (Nabo) have this or something very similar on their coach. When I was talking with Nathan, he seemed very pleased with it.

We had the 6 foot one on our 3600 rl Bighorn...worked great! We just kept it pulled down and secured, only pulled it up to clean rear window.

Mobilecastle - the sunshade that you show mounts inside of the camper. We had our dealer get a sunshade that mounts on the outside of the back window. It's a pull down that has locking pins at the bottom for stabilization when down. When traveling, we have it rolled all the way up. It's a great sun block and privacy blocker during the daytime - you can see out but folks can't see in. Hope this helps.

After reading the description, I'm sure it's the one that goes outside..just like what we had.

I too would be interested in an outdoor type sun shade for the rear window.......My question is...What does it mount to? I would be concerned about mounting it to the fiberglass rear cap.

Both the shade and the tie-down clips mount to the outside of the cap. We watched the dealer install the shade using the screws that came with the kit using a weather proof pad between the mounting block and cap to protect the cap from having an inside leak.

We mounted it ourselves. There is sufficient wood structure surrounding the rear window to mount the screen and the securing clips to. As stated earlier...we found we could leave the screen down even during travel.

Thanks for all the answers-I am rolloing out this week to go south. When I get back I am going to order one and install it. Those of you who have it-are the mounting brakets right at the top of the window across from the glass or above the window?

Our screen was mount just above the window with the brackets just off to the sides of the window...the instructions were fairly simple....

Ours is above and below the window frame to give the window full protection. The ladder brackets didn't come into play.
