Look like the curtain rail is across all your window. Just need to remove track stops to put in full size curtains. I just use them part open with a blackout blind down a bit to keep sun out of eyes and off computer screen. This also lets in some light and air in summer.

@@qwertysds thanks. The slide up blinds are really good for blackouts, Bee sleeps better in the moho compared to home in the summer. Thanks for the observation!

Daz, we had the same issue with our 2008 Motorhome best solution is a bonnet bra ( not joking), cheaper than painting thanks Jim

Another tip, leave fridge open when not in use to stop mould. Some fridges have a safety catch on the door which you pill out, leaving about an inch gap round the door to let air circulate.

A tip! Invest in the wing mirror covers. You can get them on white! They are worth their weight in gold! We have had our mirrors hit about 6 times since we bought our van, a couple of times glass has popped out and these are easily replaced but has saved damage. to the wing mirrors themselves.

Another cheap option for the bonnet is to have it wrapped, there are several places round the south coast that can do this cheaply and match the colour, or if your brave enough take the bonnet off and rub it down and spray yourself - the fiat spray can match from Halfords is a good match and will look 100 times better for hardly any cost at all Great video, love seeing You guys take an honest approach to motor homing, and on a budget which is refreshing to see, we like you use free places where we can here in Spain 🇪🇸
