Could the industry ever go to this product? It would need an ignition interlock to keep it from activating on the road.

That would have to be an aftermarket decision made by the customer.

Sounds expensive.

Then I would be interested, we use the front as storage when parked. With a bunch of dogs and dog show stuff we need all the space we can get.
If it's sunny it does heat up whatever is put there. We also have the exterior mounted shields, again if you are traveling everyday who wants to drag it out. These seem light and practical without having to get out of the motorhome.

We use the outside one, very easy to do but you still have to put up the inside curtain because no matter what they say you can see thru at nighttime with the lights on. Would love an interior option only if you could somehow see through to the outside. I have used regular two piece sunscreens when we are parked for the night two in the windshield and one each on the side windows.

shades

I use custom (in stock) internal thermal shades that cover all the glass on front and sides. They also make it very dark for day sleeping... The manf. Name escapes me but it is listed on my album. Very happy with them.

We do the same with our 3170ds.

During our purchase walk thru my wife called the stock curtain hideous to the salesman as he showed us how it worked.
We bought a cab cover the same day so we would never have to use that curtain.

We just received our Heat Shield Sun Shades last week and used them on our 4 day camping trip.They worked great and looked nice with the black on inside.We got the gold version facing out and they camp with a fabric bag they roll up in.The side windows go on with attached suction cups( very quick) and the windshield stays in place well with the visors and fit perfectly.It is a bit harder to get on around the back up camera( rear view mirror) but on the whole excellent!Thanks to the person who gave this idea.We do use the privacy curtain on very cold mornings if it is our beginning day out and coach is cold.We attach it just straight across us behind the seat and it blocks all the cold air from inside the coach!Just thought I would pass this on!

Though you didn't direct your question to me I thought I'd pass along where we got our sunshades. They are a perfect fit and come off and on in minutes.
