Eventually everyone ends up at a campground (or Walmart parking lot) where it would be really nice to have some privacy inside your van. If you are a city-dweller, privacy is a necessity most nights. Our window covers snap into place with magnets providing instant privacy. They also prevent most light from escaping from the inside for a very stealthy "black out" effect.
Glass is a horrible insulator. Whether you are trying to keep your van warm when it is cold outside, or cool when it is hot outside, our insulated window shades help keep your van comfortable. They not only increase the efficiency of your van, but they help turn your van from a house on wheels, to a comfy home. No suction cups. No velcro to hold it to your van.
All of our window covers snap into place using powerful magnets (except the windshield cover which is held in place with the factory sun visors). When you arrive at camp after a long day of driving, deploying the shades is just a matter of pushing them against the window.

Not too long ago we bought a 2016 Sprinter van 44 (it's 144 high roof if you are interested).
Shortly after buying it we went to work customizing it to meet our family's needs.
During the customization process we made some insulated window shades to provide privacy and help regulate the van temperature.
We will be honest.
Our first window shades were okay and they took forever to make.
They got the job done, but they weren't production quality.
However, some friends thought they were nice enough that they wanted us to make them some.

We've spent countless hours making insulated Sprinter van window covers (shades, curtains or whatever you want to call them).
Since I first wrote my original how-to article I've learned a lot and we've iterated on our design for over 6 months.
I'm truly proud of the window shades we are making now!
Here are some pictures of a recent batch of insulated window shades we made for the rear door covers for an NCV3 Mercedes Sprinter van (we also make covers for the 2019 and newer Sprinters VS30).
You'll notice nice straps, strong ribbon around the outside, according-style folding and just better sewing in general.

Yes, our covers work with or without the technology box, but we do need to know if you have a rear view mirror.
If you have another setup, like a screen or rain sensor get in touch with us and we will make a recommendation for your windshield.
The grab handles on the cabin doors that we need to know about are down low on the door, kind of in front of the side mirror, but on the interior.
They are standard only in 44 Sprinters.
Yes, as long as we know you have a passenger van we will put extra large magnets in the passenger rear quarter panels and the crew window (behind the driver) covers.
