the arms on my rear blind have snapped....can I buy replacements and how difficult are they to repair...cheers nick

Same happened to mine when i tried to force it(only a bit)! Your best off obtaining a second hand one, i got one from a breaker in Ireland and works great

Indeed, replace the whole shelf for another the same colour.

that's what I thought id have to do.....only thing is now I gotta find one lol

There more trouble than there worth in my opinion, I would put it to rest and leave it, if the arms dont snap, they bend, jam, motor gives up, the switch breaks or falls in pieces.

Mine has the habit of not folding itself away properly, so it remains permanently 'up'. I use it as a privacy blind

Hmm, cant help thinking permanently down would be better though.

Its the same old story if you have a blind that works ,use it fairly regularly and it will keep working

Exactly. When the car was in use, I used to open & close the blind every so often, or rather she would always drive with it open ..... apparently you can't see through them properly  I almost always had it closed. when i came to sell the car, the blind would open .... lack of use. It's not the easiest thing to remove when extended!
