These are a wonderful addition. I put a set on ours after seeing Chris's, and they really help cut down the glare. We've had other Oliver owners ask about them, too.

BTW, I made my own after Chris sent me the material information. Chris is NOT asking a premium for these, unless he is only paying himself pennies/hour for his time. Each piece is cut to length, all four corners rounded, every surface sanded for the paint to adhere, degreased, and painted both sides with two coats of Oliver matching paint. Then a double-sided adhesive is added. As of today, a piece of the material Chris uses and shipping is $36, plus paint and adhesive. $50 is a more than fair price.

I think Chris is now making these a bit longer than then I saw them. So the spillover at the ends would be reduced even more. 

Thanks, Chris!

Thank you for the kind support Steve. Yes the new design is approximately 6" long and a slightly larger "Z" profile for more coverage.

I had planned on offering these at future rallies way back when I shared the information with you. Since then the shipping cost for the material has skyrocketed to a minimum of $50. Several owners have since expressed and interest in this accessary for their Oliver. For this reason I ordered enough to make eight sets to offset that shipping cost slightly. I think I'm clearing approximately $10 per set above my costs per set at $50. My real interest is sharing the solution with those who find it helpful for their camping needs. If others want a set I would gladly make additional sets in the future and ship, or even share the information to make a set themselves.

Yikes! As late as last fall they still had the $18 flat fee no matter the order size. Any time I needed something, I’d tack on a box of nuts, bolts, or washers in a size I was short on to offset the shipping. I guess I’ll be buying even more fasteners the next time! 🤪
