Here you are the ends of the curtain pops onto the van and the centre is held together with tabs around the rear mirror. Its not too difficult to do and you dont have the curtain rails around your cab area.
Good luck

Hi Olive, Thanx for the pic's, i had visions of it going behind the seats to close off the cab area from the back, where did you get the poppers from? and what did you use to fix them to the van with?

Hi Matt,
I got the poppers from a haberdashery shop the kit shows you how to put the male popper onto the curtain and drilled a pilot hole in the van and use a self tapper to fix the female popper. There are four poppers and the centre is velcro tabbed around the rear view mirror. Dead easy

Morning folks,
we thought about front curtains, but in the end we just ended up using the thermo blinds to keep heat/cold in and out.
Our rear curtains that we had made up from Ikea fabric are double lined with a blackout layer and magnets sewn into the bottoms to attach to the bus.
Highly recommended set up for a good nights kip!
We have the same and by using the magnets you dont need to worry about anu lght coming through

Magnets sound like a great idea.
