Ideas for privacy curtain for toilet in A213HW?

Has anyone come up with a diy privacy curtain for the A213HW (or other model with cassette toilet)? If so, would you be willing to share pics?

We just picked ours up (used 2017 model) last weekend and I'm slowly collecting accessories. I'm wondering if I could mount clothes-rod cups on the triangular walls (maybe with command tabs?) and use a very lightweight pole with a bit of curtain to make some privacy for the toilet.

Any thoughts (or warnings, lol) would be appreciated.

One of these.

Or use a fancy shower curtain on spring type curtain rod material.

I would make sure if using fasteners to tighten by hand otherwise they will tear out the luan plywood.

That divider is not a bad idea. Every once in awhile you surprise me Ricky! Divider folds up, and can be easily stored, no risk of damaging anything with fasteners.

I would get a short one though, you know? Like one you can see over. I like to talk to people when I'm using the bathroom. Helps pass the time. Probably cheaper, too.

Depends on what facial expressions the sitter is making while doing his or her business.

Truth be told, I would get a shower tent like this or a double one to put the toilet into. I don't know if the toilet in your unit is removable or not. I would then use the space it is in to store in while not in use. I just have ewww factor with a toilet at my eating table. If you have an outdoor shower you can use it as a wet bath.

Get a wood dowel long enough to reach across the opening. Before cutting, put an eye screw in one end then cut to the needed length. Put an eye screw in the other end and Command hooks on the walls. When measuring your cuts, allow a little space and use the eye screws to fine adjust to fit. We used an extra big beach towel and ring clips to go on the dowel.

We just used a tension shower curtain rod (amazon 52 to 86 inches). It stays up with tension and especially if you put it right next to latches.

that's exactly what we did, Command hooks and a 1/2" wooden dowel from WM, ... our options were to leave the bath room door open when not in use and have constant full view of the toilet(we didn't like that one), ... or leave the door closed and make the trailer seem smaller(we didn't like that one either), ...

solution was a fabric partition(this one we like a lot), ... pics show our two other options and DW's handy work, ...

since it's just laying on the Command hooks it can easily be lifted off and temporarily set aside if that's ever needed or wanted, ...

Cool. It does look better than your door. Your 'dear wife' does nice work.

Ideas for privacy curtain for toilet in A213HW?

Our setup is simple

Adjustable curtain rod (at least 7 feet) set into the sidewall latches. Hang a nice fabric shower curtain. Click image for larger version

Ditto on the curtain rod. Mine rests on the roof latches. I have two heavy duty cloth curtains on it and it also serves as a dressing area, we have room there because we removed that huge heavy table. It also helps keep heat (we use a small electric heater) and A/C on the end where the beds are. We have the twin bed model.

Like Icangler, Mtmurphy56, & tlspencer - I put a "rod" across the latches. I'm too frugal for a tension rod, so I just cut a piece of electrical conduit the exact length needed. Then the Mrs. bought a decent curtain from Wallyworld. We've had it three seasons and it is perfect for us.

That is exactly what I did. The pole is also useful for hanging things on such as towels that need to dry and even clothes on hangers. Easy to put up and take down. The rod lays on the floor on the fridge side for travel.
