REMIfront Darkening solution for driver's cabins:  Remis now offers the right solution to darken the driver's cabins for Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxer, Citroen Jumper, plus Mercedes Sprinter and VW Crafter, Ford Transit, Renault Master, Vauxhall Movano and Nissan Interstar cabs. A system of pleated blinds makes it easily possible to darken the cab at night with useful cold insulation too. New in 2006 - all versions are now the more convenient 'meet in the middle' design as shown left. Also new in 2006 is the RemiFront III which has been introduced for the new 2007 model vehicles - Ducato, Boxer, Sprinter, Master, etc.

Advantages:  Guaranteed rapid installation in new vehicles, Easily retrofitted for existing vehicles, Removable if necessary, High degree of darkening, Attractive design, High quality appearance through the use of pleats with all versions now vertically pleated. The structure of the profile system only takes up a small amount of space in the vehicle, Minimal restriction of vision when the system is opened.

Our View - Easy DIY:  Now for Sprinter, Transit, & Renault/Vauxhall Master too.  These excellent concertina blinds fit all Ducato/Boxer cabs from 1994 on and are available either as a complete DIY set or as separate components, front & sides. You will see them already appearing as original equipment but they are also very easy to retro-fit to existing vehicles, as per the Caravan Club Practical article in their November 03 magazine but at our lower discount prices of course. We've just fitted them to our own Hymer coachbuilt - it took me only just over the hour and they're excellent in use!  Not only are they very convenient but also serve to release that extra cab space in a coachbuilt while at the same time concealing cab area from prying eyes - and even better you don't have to get out of the 'van in the pouring rain to put them up!  Do note that the Ducato version is universal but the others are 'handed' - you must specify LHD or RHD.  Also Ducato / Boxer / Jumper blinds are now side to side opening like the ones for Sprinter and Master. Although slightly more difficult to install these are much more convenient in use. One great tip is to make sure you have a universal or right-angled screwdriver adaptor for the two awkward centre dashboard screws. NB: Rarely there can be fitting issues if the converter has added trim or furniture obstructing the windscreen surround.  Buy Now >>

There is a warning in the Remis instructions about use with certain types of airbags ... (literal translation) "Important note! This information first carefully read. For vehicles with Airbags in the A-columns or above the doors, this system is not suitable!".  We're not currently aware of any such airbags fitted to motorhomes.

RemiFlair Window blinds:  Combined night blind, sunscreen and flyscreen in a slim line cassette. The aluminium coating gives blackout, privacy and heat reflection all in one quality unit. Suitable for caravans and motorhomes. The dimensions given are the nominal external dimensions. Easy installation. To just cover the window plus surround, the Remiflair must be a minimum of 30mm wider overall, see below. In general allow some extra clearance at sides and top by choosing a size slightly larger than the window size. To adjust the drop simply cut the side tracks to length and re-insert the end caps. It's best to allow the blind to drop slightly lower than the window so allow maybe 100-120mm extra drop including the top frame. Normally ex-stock.

Remiflair Sizing:  The nominal size of the blind is based on its outside dimensions. The side arms are rebated at the back so that you can fit the blind partially overlapping the window surround if desired. The sides are about 35mm wide and the rebate is about 5mm deep by 20mm wide so the effective internal width of the blind is reduced by 30mm when fitted like this. If not using the rebate for a tight fit the internal clearance (free width) between the side frames is about 75mm less than the nominal width. See the picture for a nominal 1400mm blind example. The issues top to bottom are different, first the header height is 70mm with the blind leading edges protruding about 20mm so there is some fitting leeway there. The blind 'catch' positions in the sides are every 150mm starting from near the bottom. It is possible to cut/file additional catches with a little skill if required. Allow some overlap at the bottom for best effect. When reducing the width, do so at one end only, this allows you to avoid the spring-loaded mechanism at the other end.
