Introducing Vanshades X System

All Window Pods will now feature our new Vanshades X Blind System – find out more here.
Window Pods ordered after 23/09/24 will have the new X System blind, if you are looking to match our previous blind system please contact us.

Our product lead times are currently 4-5 weeks

Window Pods® are designed to fit to the steel window recess of the vehicle. Window Pods® are therefore not compatible with any plastic trim present around the window (e.g. Tourneo Custom). If you are unsure if this applies to your vehicle, please get in touch via email or phone before placing your order.

The Vanshades Original Window Pod® system is a camper van window blinds system that is an easy to install, pre-assembled blind and frame system which offers stylish privacy for all windows of your VW T5 & T6 or Ford Transit Custom camper van.

*Please be advised Spectrum RAL colours may not be true to real colours due to screen settings. It’s strongly recommended using the K7 Classic RAL colour swatches to match to your preference in person.

Please be advised our Window Pods are made from recycled ABS plastic, when ordering ‘Naked’ the Pods can be subject to some minor blemishes. The ‘Naked’ option is available for customers or convertors who wish to carpet the Pods themselves.

Vanshades X Blind System

All Window Pods will now feature our newly developed X System, a specially designed blind solution that improves functionality and durability.

New Blind System Features:

  • The previous protruding handle has been replaced with a precision-engineered X-profile aluminium rail for a sleeker, space-saving design
  • Functionality has been improved as the new rail can be operated by grabbing the scalloped edge at any point, eliminating the need to reach for the handle at the centre of the blind
  • Nylon plastic components are now glass-filled to prevent unwanted cord friction

Cellular Thermal/Blackout Features

The foil lined cellular pleated structure of our thermal blinds have been created to give a modern sleek look. The cellular design holds a layer of air which acts as an insulator, retaining heat in the winter and keeping your vehicle cool in the summer.

  • Foil lined honeycomb design
  • Retains heat in winter
  • Helps to keep you cooler in the summer
  • Reduces condensation
  • Provides a thermal barrier
  • Blackout as standard
  • Reduces noise pollution in your vehicle

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I fit a Window Pod behind my current kitchen splashback?

    We manufacture our own splashbacks, and we can also offer a Window Pod or blind only (without frame) to be secured to the back of your existing splashback. This will be difficult to add to a splashback which is already installed in a vehicle!

  • I have bought a Vanshades splashback, how do I cut it to size?

    As our splashbacks are sold by default in one size, they will need resizing to fit your vehicle. Whether you have an aluminium composite or acrylic splashback, they can be cut with a jigsaw and straight edge. We recommend using masking tape where you are cutting to avoid scratching and chipping.

  • Are Window Pods® compatible with Evo Motion Design kitchens?

    As Evo kitchens are normally of a higher worktop height than most units. This can have an impact on a Window Pod for a sliding window behind the driver. We recommend using a splashback with an Evo kitchen.

  • Will the fitting of the product put any holes in the body of the vehicle?

    As Window Pods are fitted with self-drilling screws, there will be holes in the steel bodywork of the vehicle, these are however all hidden by the product and are nowhere near any glass, electrics, or locks.

  • I have a rear wash wiper on my tailgate, will this affect the fitting of the Window Pod?

    No, Window Pods have been designed with this in mind. The tailgate Window Pods® have a motor housing cover built in to cover the wiper motor.

  • Can the blinds be cleaned?

    The blinds in Window Pods can be cleaned with a damp cloth.

  • What type of vans do you offer Window Pods for?

    We currently manufacture Window Pods® for the VW T5/T6 and Ford Transit Custom (2013+). The pods are designed & precision engineered at our dedicated facility in South Yorkshire.

  • I’ve fitted a Window Pod to the sliding door of my vehicle, why won’t my door fully close?

    You must have a VW factory sliding glass. Prior to fitting Window Pods®, you must remove the plastic trim cover on the top bar of the sliding window for the Window Pod to sit correctly. This is covered in our fitting guide provided with every order.

  • Can I install my Window Pod?

    Window Pods are a pre-assembled blind and frame system which offers stylish privacy for all windows of your camper van. They're designed to be as easy as possible to fit directly into your camper interior, using just a few tools. Check out our 3-minute video installation tutorial.

  • I have replica VW windows, will Window Pods fit these?

    If you have an aftermarket copy of the VW OEM Kombi sliding windows (flush glass from outside of vehicle), our product for the VW OEM windows should still fit, it is best to check with our sales team if you have any concerns regarding the style of your windows.
