After driving a couple of times this summer, I have found that the dash air just doesn't cut it. I really hate to run the generator all day long while driving, many have suggested putting something in to seperate the front seat area from the rear to trap the cool (I can't call it cold) air in front where the occupants are.
I thought about this for a couple of months, and debated several different designs before finally deciding how to go about this.
I went to Home Depot and got a length of closet rod and a pair of wood closet rod retainers. I had some cherry gel stain here from a different project. I stained the rod ends and attached them to the overhead cabinets with two sided tape, hopefully if they have to be removed they can do so easily with a minimum of damage:
I trimmed the wooden rod to length and stained it to match. I found some nice, heavy 84" drapes at Bed, Bath & Beyond, in a grey that matched the interior nicely, and hung them from the rod:
It could look a bit better, but considering that the front seats aren't even I just couldn't think of any better way of doing it. A side effect of doing it this way is that the rod doesn't have to be removed every night to run the slides out. The rod can be removed anytime or for the winter with a minumum of visible remnants. The rod ends do not interfere with opening the storage doors at all.
