Diplomat Windshield Drapes

Looking for a source to replace our windshield drapes on our 2002 Diplomat. I found something on Camping World's site but they were pretty spendy. Any help would be appreciated.

Our 2001 Dip had stained liners so we took those off and machine washed the curtains, came out great.

We have a 2007 Diplomat and within a week we will be replacing our front drapes with MCD shades. The drapes would probably go in the dumpster. They are in great shape with no stains. You are welcome to have them for the cost of shipping/boxes. Send me a private message if interested.

We bought a generic set from CW on sale and the wife hemed them to length, better than the orignals

For what Camping World charges, you can probably go to a fabric/sewing shop and have a set made with a much better selection of materials. I have used the shop in our town for a couple of RV related things. Cost has always been wonderful and so has the work.

I replaced mine from Penney's. It took 4 panels. I sewed two together for the drivers side and put velcro attachments on the one for the right side of the windshield and the drivers side. they are insulated and color matched pretty close.

To mdc99, I have a set of curtains with all the attachments (no rail) that I purchased from Diplomat Don last spring. I can't use them as I thought I could, so you can have them for the cost of shipping, the same as I did with Diplomat Don. I think it was about $22.00 or so. Let me know if you still need them. email me at tomd85208@cox.net .

I also have a set of the pleated drapes that I removed from my 2005 Airstream. They are in good condition and I have the hardware including the rail if anyone is interested. I don't have the dimensions but can get length and width later today. Just pay shipping cost. PM if you are interested.
