Cab windshield covers

Shopping for reasonably priced windshield and side window covers for our class C Ford E450. Anyone care to share what you use and approx cost? As I park mostly in the shade at home we would mainly use it for privacy during evenings.
The outside types look OK but I wonder about theft so something secure?

Best bet is Weather Tech...hands down. Perfect fit from the inside and covers every inch. Rolls up stores easily too. Go tp website and enter year, make and model. Perfect fit!

Gritz is spot on!

There is nothing better than the WeatherTech stuff.... and it is made in the good ole USA!

I had one for my Class E450 and one now for my Super C F550. You want to be sure to get the Full Cab Kit.

We have camped with this outside one for multiple years now and have never had an issue. While someone could come up and cut this off, it latches over the doors so it can't just be simply removed without opening the door of the cab.

Thanks to everyone for info. Weather tech makes some top quality floor matts and we have three sets for our vehicles. I priced out the windshield and side window covers at around $130 plus shipping. Outside model from Amazon under $30 shipping included. Decisions decisions.....

I got a Sunpro shield for the outside of the windshield and side windows. It also slips into corners of the doors for security. It's UV reflective to keep the cab less hot. Something inside will let the windshield heat up more aggravating the already difficult job of trying too minimize heat gain in the cab. Down side to Sunpro, they are not light blocking, only filtering so at night you'll need inside shades/curtains for total privacy. Im in my second year of use on the Valencia and very happy with it. Well made and less than Weathertec

Cab windshield cover

We have the outside windshield cover for our class c and haven’t had any issues with theft in 2 years. Love it. Easy to put on, take off and store.

You're pulling in the campground late and it's pouring rain. The beauty of a motorhome vs a trailer...you don't have tp go outside for anything for a while...unless you have to put those outside window coverings on...my vote is Weather Tech.

Low cost cab window cover

I decided to buy this from Ebay and looks to fit all our needs. I wanted privacy and sun protection while we're camping and I found this low cost solution that fits our needs to a tee. Appears to be well made and should last us a good long while. Fits like a glove and installed in a jiffy. Sometimes high quality is an overkill.

Look this up on eBay! I bought one and it works perfect! We use it when we’re in a campground. When we’re on the road we have a curtain that we Velcro inside!

Second upvote for this cover on Amazon. We've been using that one for 8 months and it works great. Easy to roll up and store too.
