Driver Compartment Side Window Shades ?

Hi all

Purchased a new 2021 Fleetwood Flair 29M in June and we love it as it has great floor plan.

It is entry level RV so the mfg didn’t include all bells and whistle but one item I’d like to add is side curtains for the drivers cockpit. When you sleep on the drop down bed you have no head/toe privacy at night. I would like to add some kind of shades and would be interested in if folks have run into this also ? Couple comments/questions after researching options:

1. We have an electric MCD front shade but it seems if you want to add these on the sides you have to go to the MCD factory in TX which is a long way as we are in Chicago ?
2. I thought about adding curtains which we can just strap back during the day - anybody no of good kits for this
3. Any other ideas ?

Thanks
Jonathan

I wanted shades to partially pull down while driving, just to the top of the outside mirrors. I went to Lowe's and had them cut 2 to length. It cost $8 each. They wouldn't cover the entire window at the bottom but for keeping sun out, they work just fine. We have curtains to cover the side windows when parked.
