Title: Removing rear blind - what will be left?
Post by: GastronomicKleptomaniac on 25 December 2011, 11:11:25
If I remove the rear blind from my car, will I be left with a gaping hole, or is there a cover plate?

There are enough non-blind parcel shelves floating around, both Bose and non-bose, so I'd find a replacement shelf :)

Aah, but I am sad enough to play with it at least once every time I take her out for a drive.

This is about the only use I can think of for it... ;)

Seriously, I never use it, and I have plans that need somewhere to put another switch. Will track down a new shelf in the new year, once I've done the eleventy-hundred other things I want to with the car...

My blind is almost always up, as was my Senator's (although that involved a little more than pressing a button). It's only down when SWMBO drives it.  ;) ;)

This was one of the reasons I wanted an Elite. Never paid much attention to spec until it was too late and I realised the blind was discontinued for late models  :(

Can be retro fitted quite easily....?

And yes, mine is in constant use. Love the blind, hate poorly adjusted lights in my mirror and lighting up the inside of the car.

Only lowered mine once in 6 months!


.... And I won't be doing it again because it jams going up and takes two people or wedging my phone under it so I can hit the button twice to get the thing raised again.  ::)

I bought a CDX off my uncle dirt cheap but was missing a couple of toys like a blind and electric seats. Within a week these were fitted. My blind is always in use, especially traffic lights and roundabouts for showing off to the car behind :) getting rear tints soon though so no one will see it. Ah well I can still impress my passengers :p
