rear blind
« on: 30 December 2013, 21:44:33 »
After trying to pull up rear blind by hand and yes breaking one of the plastic bars i have located a replacement. However just for the hell of it i tried the blind again tonight and it worked >:(   Well it went up obviously lopsided ,what i wondered is it possible to replace just the broken plastic bar from my doner one when it arrives or is it not possible  thanks for any info

As you have to remove the blind completely in order to repair it, you may as well replace it...

Might be interested in your old one once you have the new one installed and working. ;)
Mine is a bit lazy,so I might be able to make one good one from two.  :y

Did mine a while back and its easy enough but the parcel shelf is tricky to get out but easy to do also Mine was a different colour to the replacement but you can change the top part.  :y Just make sure as you slide the old one off you slide the new one on as it is under a spring load and it will retract and be a bar person to get back.  ;D
