Side edge guides are provided which include a channel portion for receiving the side edges of the window shade, a mounting flange portion and a connecting portion between the mounting flange portion and the channel portion. A flex line is provided in the connecting portion to allow the mounting flange portion and the channel portion to be moved relative to each other between a first position extending generally perpendicular to a plane bisecting the channel portion for mounting on the window casing inside the window opening and a second position extending generally parallel to a plane bisecting the channel portion for mounting on the window casing outside the window opening. A U-shaped roller housing is provided for enclosing the roller and is mounted by end caps on the roller mounting brackets to provide a seal between the upper portion of the window shade and the top of the window casing.
