The Item in My Kit

I bought YelloPro Transit Windshield Shade as part of my camper van equipment.

The YelloPro windshield shade is part of the equipment I bought for the van. The cab remained part of my layout thinking while the cargo area was still being prepared for framing.

Choosing How Much Cab Glass to Cover

  1. I used SketchUp to plan the interior and put body openings ahead of the framing, floor and wall panels.
  2. My Interior Preparation notes included the shower drain and openings for three water tanks in that preparation sequence.
  3. I removed cargo tie-down hardware for later framing mounts and door trim for the later insulation and paneling.

My Takeaway for the Build

My interior plan included the cab as well as the cargo area. For this windshield-shade purchase, the important comparison is the area covered and how the panel packs away. Proadsy is another windshield-only option; the T TGBROS set also adds the two front side windows, changing the scope of the purchase.

Product Details And Van-Build Uses

SpecificationProduct Detail
BrandYelloPro
FormatFront windshield cover

The YelloPro windshield shade forms a removable panel across the front cab glass. Its listed application and overall outline are the comparison points before choosing it for a Transit. Include access around the mirror and the storage space for the folded or rolled shade. Keep this front panel separate from the two side-window covers in the travel kit.

Why Keep The Shade Application With The Item?

The windshield shape and cab details determine the fit. A generic van description does not identify every compatible glass outline.

Two Alternatives to Compare

The Proadsy alternative is a folding windshield shade. T TGBROS combines a windshield cover with two front side-window covers, changing the amount of cab glass covered by the purchase.
