Upgraded shower curtain

[tinkeringtechie]

Today I replaced the stock curtain with an accordion style tracked curtain:

I ordered the taller model so I could cut it to fit a few inches below the ceiling. I started with my miter saw but eventually switched to a Dremel because the miter made one piece chip. Once everything was cut it's just attached with double-stick tape. A quick bead of caulk around the edge and then it's done. Hopefully that will keep the floor dry and store out of the way more easily:

[/quote]Tell that to LivinLite   It should have been built with these kind of features if you ask me.

Can you provide details of manufacturer model # website purchased from. This sounds like another good mod. Thanks

Here's the specific one that I ordered:

[a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004RCUV24/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1"]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004RCUV24/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/a]

Unfortunately their heights are only 57" or 67". 57" was so short I would be able to peek over the top, and 67" is too tall to fit without modifications. So I bought the 67" and cut it to fit. 36"  wide is fine as the stall is only 32" or so.

A little pricey but ... I'm thinking about one of these.
Anybody have one?

Looks cool, but after shipping it comes out to $210  8-|... yikes. I don't think I could pay that much for a shower curtain no matter how cool it is.

[shovelhead]

Yep thats what I meant as "pricey"... If I could find it with free shipping i'd be more tempted but even then pricey :-)

Thanks for the info!

I bought the same one that tinkeringtechie bought on Amazon. I also cut it down about 3 inches, I used a hack saw with a fine tooth blade and it went thru the end like butter. Just make sure it is nice and snug/tight when you cut it. Mine was strapped down pretty good but my son in law was also holding it tight. Held up very well on my 6 week cross country. That and changing out the shower head made the shower very usable.

Looks great! Good idea! We will probably do that to ours as well once we get it. Also, is there a problem with the shower heads that come from the factory, or is it just a personal preference thing?

[p]This is the shower head that I used, as recommended on this forum http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/bodyspa-rv-shower-kit-white/68324 someone also replaced the shutoff valve with a better one that doesn't have the leak. The small leak while in use didn't bother me.[/p][p]

Very impressive!  But from someone who hates cleaning showers, I prefer a curtain I can wash in a washing machine or replace inexpensively when needed.  But your accordion style definitely looks better.
