Absolutely! Here is the link.


ShadePro Inc.: Vista Shade for Electric RV Awnings

I like it because the first 2 feet stay in the track and roll up with the shade and you just zip in the extensionm when you want it. Also bought a side shade, we use it occasionally. It comes with 2 sets of hardware so you can put it on either end. Both came in really nice plasticy canvas bags for easy storage. And had stakes and ties.

The trick is figuring out how much drop you need, once you are level etc.to shade your space. I'd probably add another foot or so if I did it again.

Happy shopping!
Garren

had the same problem myself one time - that's why we looked into the drop shades! We also bought inside shades for the front windows - I like to be able to see out, so putting down the night shade whenever I wanted to block the sun was getting old.

Glad to help a fellow FROG out!

Yes, the craftsmanship impressive. Well worth the money. I did not have to kill anyone either.

I briefly considered it, rather pay Turbs... While he is making my poles I can go camping.
