Zebra Shades

Has anyone come up with a way to keep the zebra shades down while traveling? We don’t like to travel with the shades open because of the large windows. The camper heats up along with the fact everyone can easily see inside when we stop at a rest area, store, etc.
I put command hooks upside down and hook them before pulling out but many times because of bouncing the shaded end up going up.

I bought some black Velcro squares and put them on the lower corner of each window and shade. It has worked great for two years now.

I forgot we tried that. But our windows have wood frames that aren’t smooth. The Velcro didn’t stick to them. Thanks tho!

I just looked at my 2021 Arctic Wolf and it has wood molding around the windows, my Velcro is still holding strong after almost two years.

Actually kind of both or angled, make sure to clean the molding with some alcohol before you stick them on. Also,I think the ones I used were from 3m
