Draw chain vertical pleated blinds as on 2006 Mountain Air.

We currently have a 2012 Bay Star 2901 with the vertical pleated blinds at front. They bunch up when drawing and are a bit of a pain to store.
Our friends have a 2006 Mountain Air with the corded pull (ball chain), vertical pleated blinds at front. So much easier to pull the chain at the side to store the blinds.
I would like to modify the Bay Star stick pull blinds to the corded pull type but am having difficulty finding an aftermarket curtain rod set to match his Mountain Air.
Would anyone any ideas? The rods curve around the front to side of the motor home. Regular drapery rods cannot be bent.
Thanks for any help or ideas.

We have the chain pull pleated curtains on our KSDP. When pulled open pretty well but when trying to close they do bot "push" closed well at all. Have to gather material by hand and help it in sections. I sure would not spend much time or money to get what we have.

Two thoughts:
How about contacting a RV Salvage yard or Calling Newmar directly to see what the system might cost new?
