I don't know about you, but I love the mini-blinds. From the outside it gives the boat a uniform look, and they can be adjusted to reflect light up and onto the headliner while still maintaining privacy.
Here is a photo of the front V-berth windshield installation. Careful measurement of each section was required to provide a nice fit. I cut down the wand and the cords. We installed mini-blinds in the main cabin too and we love them.
Edit comment: here's what they look like from the outside when they are closed.
