Covering the windshield area on your RV can provide many different benefits for you, and the cost of a good RV windshield cover is not out of reach for most RV owners. There are different covers for different situations, so you will need to determine what kind of covers you need for your situation. 

Covers Provide Privacy

RV windshield covers are often the best way to keep people from looking into your RV as they walk past. The windshields are large so that the driver can see well as they drive the RV, but when you are parked somewhere, the glass provides a large open area for people to look into the RV, unless you find a way to cover the glass. 

For RV's that are staying in one place for a few days or longer, adding a mesh RV windshield cover to the outside can provide the privacy you need and still allow you to see out and light to get in. The covers are installed on the exterior of the RV and often include covers for the side windows as well, and the mesh they are made from is durable enough to be left in place even if it is raining outside. 

Interior covers can provide privacy, but these are often placed in the window to block the sun, and may not allow you to see out through the window. If you are not concerned with seeing outside through the front of the unit, then interior windshield covers may work better for you, because they can be easier to put in place once you park for the night. 

Long Term Storage

If you are putting your RV into storage for a while, covering the windshield with a high-quality RV windshield cover can protect the glass and keep the ultraviolet light from streaming in through the window and damaging the interior of the RV. The large glass windshields let a lot of light in, and over time the sun can cause the dash, seats, and other upholstered areas in the driver's compartment to crack and fade.

The best way to protect the interior of your RV is to block the sun from getting in, and covering the front and side glass can do that. Many companies make covers for many different RV models, so it is not difficult to find one that will suit your needs. Check with the dealer that you purchased your RV from, and if they do not have the covers you need, a quick search online will often provide many options for you to consider.
