      Thanks. Cheap and easy. They have worked great so far! The 3m hooks are an alternative to sticky Velcro and are easy on easy off. Best of luck with your car curtains!!

      Works great! Changed the 3m hooks to black so they match the cars interior. Thanks

    Came in handy when you slept at Walmart a couple weeks ago! I wouldn’t want any lookyloos either.

      It did! Helped to block out the parking lot lights too. Thanks

    Awesome setup. I plan on doing a lot of traveling for fishing next year and sleeping in the car is going to make a lot of it happen financially. This will help a ton.

    Here I am creating window covers from that shiny bubble wrap insulation and within a few weeks, it became so flimsy that I have to use a credit card to try and get it into the window and hope they don't fall down in the middle of my sleep. This is simple and easy. Thank you.

    Very cool! Scion TC is great but uniquely shaped. (Love my car!)
    Do people or security ever bother you *because* they cannot see you?
    That always worried me, almost more than the idea of looky-loos 😕

    Really nice set up in my truck it’s easier for me because my windows are smaller and less area is window so I have less to cover also my windows are tinted and I have a camper shell that blocks a lot of the window in the rear

    • @TrailsNTrout
      @TrailsNTrout  3 роки тому

      Thanks. I will probably get my windows tinted eventually. Smaller windows make things much easier

    Hi there, I really enjoyed watching your video. Lots of great tips! One question: can you please post a list of the items you used to make the curtain and the store bought items? I have a honda accord so i hope the curtain can stretch all the way back to cover the rear windows. I'm going on a super long road trip so this is so helpful.
    Thank you so much in advance !! :)

    • @TrailsNTrout
      @TrailsNTrout  2 роки тому +4

      Hey thanks for watching and hope your trip is amazing! Here are the items to make car curtains: 1 Blackout Curtain from Walmart cut to shape of windows, 1/8 inch Shockcord cut to length of windows and 2 Of those 3m sticky clips with hooks to tie back the bottom of curtains using a sewn on shockcord loop attaching via loop and hook. If you want to make one big curtain from front to back stronger shockcord may be necessary so there is no sag from the bigger heavy curtain. Just a thought

    Why not use another front window shade on the back and hook it in?

      The front window and back are different shapes and the front shade is made to size

    Why don’t you just get tints ?

    • @TrailsNTrout
      @TrailsNTrout  3 роки тому +2

      I will at some point but in legally I can only get 35% tint max which would still allow people to see inside. Plus window tint doesn’t make it as dark inside as blackout curtains does.
