Window Shades

[RVN4US]

We sent in one our window shades to the company that made them to have the string replaced. Mailed on March 28th, it was returned to us on April 11th, which I thought was a great turn around time. Cost to mail to them and a check for $15.00 for return shipment. Thought that I would share this, as it is great to still have a company that can be counted on.

You will find additional information on window shade maintenance for your Born Free coach in an earlier post of mine titled New Style Adjustable Tensioner Bobbins for Day/Night Shades in the Technical Library section of this forum.

A direct clickable link to that topic is: http://www.bornfreervclub.org/bulletin_ ... .php?t=870

Club member Sab Sasaki posted additional maintenance information directly below my posting.

Also, there are plans to offer a clinic on how to re-string these window shades at our 2009 National Rally in fort Dodge, IA on the schedule for June 18-21, 2009.

If you ever break a string on your day/night shades, I just wanted to let everyone know that Specialty Windows are still as nice and friendly as ever. They will still restring them for free, but you will need to enclose $15.00 for return postage. The shade is back within two weeks.
