I suggest first place to check would be FWC support or ATC (All Terrain Campers).
I would check places like Camping World or maybe JoAnn’s Fabrics if FWC can’t help. ATC uses round rods.
Sailrite is another place that might carry them.
I got rid of the cheesy brass colored curtain rods and curtains that came with my ATC that stuck out. I used some leftover fabric I had from the thermal pack project (Kimberly Clark stuff) and made roll-up curtains with some velcro patches that keep the curtain up or down. Way better and easier. The whole window is clear when they are up so more light comes in too. Just find a good stiff/heavier fabric that rolls up, and get that sewing machine out.
I like those cheesy brass colored rods, but then I’m old. 
On the serious side, I like them because the curtains slide easily. I’ve found track style “rods” tend to bind unless you’re careful.

We got rid of the rear door curtain and rods. PIA to have to open the door and separate the screen to adjust the curtains. The curtains still blocked part of the view when pulled open.
Replaced them with a 2' x 1" x 1/8" Al bar mounted inside above the door with 5 clip hooks mounted to the bar. When we need shade, we just hang a shirt or towel from the hooks. Best of all, when the sun is blasting in from the back, we still get shade and air with the screen closed and the door open.
