Replace blinds

We have a 2010 flying cloud front bed that is all original. The blinds are looking pretty beat up and we’d like to replace them with solid shades. Any recommendations what kind and where to get our shades? We live in NW Oregon and I’m thinking I can put the shades in myself.

Ocean Air blinds by Zarcor are fantastic - they make them for airstreams. But they are very expensive.

We bought RecPro Pleated to replace a broken shade in our camper. It looked in the package as a slightly different color at the top but is not. You cannot tell the difference in this one and the original for our camper! We are very satisfied and at the price very pleased! We were told at a camper store the replacement would be over $85 and so when we found the similar one a lot cheaper we bought it. Great quality as well!

I have a set of original factory “platinum” blinds from our 2007 25FB SE that are in excellent condition - we replaced them with shades. Would like them to go to a good Airstream home. Interested?

Thanks, but we also want to replace our blinds with shades. Which brand of shades did you use and are you happy with them?
