The tinting ought to do it. I rarely use the curtains any more even in my westy. We used to camp a lot in my 90 Carat before I got the westy. The tintop of course has a bigger bed. It was great. It came with a set of curtains that we used. You can easily sew up a glove of mosquito netting to go over your front windows (open) and then close the door to trap the mesh. It would be wise, I think, to get one of those rear hatch kits and install it. Popping that hatch is a great ventilator but not if bugs fill the van.
