Cockpit shade conversion

Yahoo Message Number: 86624
Hi All,

We are looking into changing out all our cockpit shades with MCD or Auto Motion Shades. We have a 2007 Allure and the front shade is a real pain to deploy. Has anyone made the conversion? Do you have any recommendations between the two brands? Also, we are on the west coast and considering a trip to McKinney Texas this summer going direct to the MCD factory to have shades installed. All comments welcome.

Have a great day and thanks for the comments.

I had the MCD Cockpit shades installed early last year here in the NW and couldn't be happier. I would like to do the rest of the coach and would consider the Auto Motion but don't know much about them.

John,

Would you let us know what the cost was to do the change out. I am looking for something different than the shades.

Tom. In my project the work was done in stages when the coach was in indoor storage a year Apart The mechanical part is straight forward and not difficult locating and providing 12v was The most difficult The remote controls work great and are well worth the expense Bob
