Vanshades curtains and what else should I consider

[Andy’M]

Sorry if this is already here somewhere I’m new to this so please point me in the right direction if it is.

I’m think of fitting van shades but before I go ahead I would like your thoughts and to see if there is something else out there that I haven’t come across.

It’s to go in a t6.1 combi with twin sliding doors with factory slid windows not aftermarket and a tail gate not barn doors.

Thanks

What did you decide on?

I'd also be interested in what your thoughts were on whatever choice you went with.

I bought some shorevans curtains and wasn't happy with them so back they went.

When the refund comes through am contemplating THQ curtains at a similar price (both under £100)

I think I want curtains but don't want to do all the drilling and screwing (very new van I don't really want holes in yet). Considering curtains held on with VHB tape but not certain it would work ...

 

[Badjamin]

The rails would be a problem possibly as they don't flex amazingly well. The holes you'd need to drill are just 2mm and will dial in the curtain rails nicely, or they should. See THQ vid below - other suppliers are available hehe

I'll be carpet lining around the windows so holes shouldn't be an issue

Yeah fitted them in my old T5, horrible job, not doing it again ...
