It all depends. I'm making panels right now that will hind anything in the van. But you also need to tint your windows and make sure there is more light on the outside than on the inside. The real problem is where the light is. I'm having a special clip make that a panel can be attatch to any of the windows. Night panels have to be totally blacked out. where as a day panel needs to be translusive. This is all part of my special EMZ Vanagon Camper series.... Detail as time will allow....
