Some use dark window film, I use an insulated pillow made for skylights.

I have no use for skylights because too much heat gets in. In our last trailer, I took the inner cover down and placed some block out curtain liner material on it and put it back. On our current trailer, I took the inner cover off and put some Reflectix on it and put it back. It's just a few screws. The only thing with my solution is that it is all or nothing - you either have a skylight or you do not.

Skylight issues in 36DB
Steve7---Did you purchase the shade or was it equipped with it? My skylight is approx. 16 X 31 and I only have a small lip for anything to be placed over it. Mark---I don't think a pillow would work. What is the size of your skylight pillow? I've seen the 12 x 12 x4 pillows for the vents and they wouldn't work. Thank you all for the responses. My RV is at the dealer getting some warranty work completed and when I get it back this week, I'll see if the inside edge of the skylight can be taken off and make something to cover the skylight.

Jim, sorry for delay, on road and didn't have internet for a few days. Mine is smaller, 13.5 x 21 inches. Here's a pic...

Steve, Where did you get your shade for the skylight? That's exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks to all that helped

The shade was already installed in the unit I purchased. Don't know if standard or option.
