The pleated windshield curtains on my 2004 Allure are starting fall apart.
Does the membership have any recommendations as to a company that would do an upgrade to some electrically operated roll-down duo-shades as replacements?
I am in contact with MCD Innovations, but thought you folks might have some thoughts on them or other alternatives that would be worth considering. Thanks.

MCD shades are one of the best purchases we have made.
Best regards,

Russ, if you don't mind, would you please describe which shades you chose from MCD? Thank you.

We live in Dallas so it was easy for us to drive to MCD's showroom. What we saw was the old style shades that roll up on a plastic roller. The old ones from long ago rolled up on wood rollers. I believe the big box stores like Home Depot or Lowes still sell the roll up shades at a much lower price than MCD. But if you want the electrically operated you will need to go with MCD and expect to pay big bucks $$$$$$$$$$$$$

Hi Mary,

I am not sure how to answer you.. except that we bought the electric front window shade and hand activated driver and passenger shades.
The three .. replace the old wrap around curtain.

We love the convenience and clean look.
