hi dano and ken...
i did find some pics but no interior shots, and 16 year old photos of my unit from outside won't help much...
since i'm leaving for several weeks now, i won't be digging for photos again for awhile.
they are window boxes.
yes top, sides and bottoms were included like a 'full framed window'.
just large enough to enclose the latches and lever arms, but with enough of a front lip to hide them and the shade edges...
this pic from camping world shows a cloth covered top section....
now imagaine sides and a bottom. without cloth made from oak.
with 45degree corner joints like picture frames.

here is another shot from cw. again cloth covered and with curtain sides.
mine were fully boxed. about 3 inches deep and with a 1-2 inch lip/face section.

the most useful thing about this pic is the sun/shaded image...imagine that is reversed. light at the top...
good luck guys. make some cardboard mockups soon.
as for manufacturers of shades...cworld doesn't make em.
they have a vendor for shades...
any of the major brands can make the shades custom to your size needs and color and blocking power, and solar reflection, and so on...
i'd suggest going to a window treatment store, or home depot or lowes.
they will likely also have lots of photos of shade accessories and valences and so on....proabably even some full framed examples...
don't forget custom shades aren't cheap...and could be as much as 200$ per window!
good luck folks...and perhaps others with ideas can jump into this thread too....
cheers
