Fitting curtains

[Bigbear]

Hi all, just had a look at fitting my curtains in the front of the bus, opened up the packet expecting to find 1 for each door and 1 for the windscreen (the other curtains are already fitted) instead I've actually got 2 very long curtains,? I've also realised I don't have the rail for the curtains over the windscreen, can anyone post up some pictures to show how your front curtains are set up please? Cheers Brett.

Hi - sorry no pictures, but I've also got two long pieces for the front - I didn't fit rails as concerned about how they would look - so instead I have put press studs that are above the two corners by the side windows (I have them already as mines a westy) and then use magnets (strong small ones from ebay) to hold the ends of the curtains where they come together in the middle of the window - I think the westy had press studs for the front windows rather than track?

Mines also a westy, along the top of the windscreen I've got screw holes where a rail or poppers used to be fitted, so does each long curtain cover each door window and half of the windscreen? Is your door window curtains on a rail or sliding hooks?

that's how I've got mine setup - each curtain does the side window and half the front window - I've got press studs screwed into the bus (male bit) and using a punch (got the bits from dunnelm) put the female part into the corner of the curtain, then another about a 3rd down the length, then planning on putting two more up above the rear-view and you just clip each one in - will take a piccie on my phone in a sec

Here you go:

The stud in the first corner:

The second stud in further down:

The OG fixings already fitted:

with the curtain in place on the side:

I tuck the top under the visor and a magnet to hold in the top (think there should be 2 otherstuds fitted but mine are missing)

From the outside:

Cheers for that , il go take a look if mine will fit the same later. My next question was going to be does your curtain pattern face in or out but your pictures have answered that, mine also face in although the rest of the curtains face out so the pattern is on view from outside, I thought this seemed odd?

Mine were a birthday present.....had I ordered them I'd have likely gone for double sided pattern
