    Anyone know someone that does some custom covers instead of the stock ones? Would like to add something different to the covers as the stock ones suck.

    Yeah I know that is the case. Just wondering if someone has created a business of it. I knew a few shops in KC area that used to do custom work but not sure they are around since covid. Will have to check them out again if nothing else.

    Explain, do you mean something better than the curtains for privacy while parked or some kind of sunshade? I am asking because I'm looking for custom sunshades that actually fit Volvo windows. I had to rip off my tint after a ticket.

    I am looking for something for the inside of the bunk windows. So a custom leather look with maybe blocking for the sun.

    TY will send them an email and see if they have anything for the 860. I only seen for the 880 and others and no 2023.

    Do the new trucks not have the snaps around the window? The fabric and even some insulation shouldn't be a problem if that's all you need. But I'm not sure about finding secure spots to attach the snaps.
     
    Siinman Thanks this.

    Yes they have the snaps. I am sure anyone can make something I am thinking of doing but figured maybe some shops already have some stuff set up for it. It is easier to have someone do it if they have done it before.
