Behind the rear locker on the Westy.

The pleats are running away with the van, how are the pleats archived??
is it on a runner where are the fixings? I have seen the diagram but still not sure how to achieve that finish...

Dirtyharry, Clem, Creationblue etc. help please! :D

I did this curtain the same way as on the drivers side, originally this curtain is stapled on a plywood panel.
Only downside the way i did it that if you pack allot of stuff in your wardrobe it shows on the outside, a plus is that you still can clean this window.
I'm working on a way for some panels on the inside of the wardrobe!

Maybe stitching the pleat in and run it on a cable top and bottom so it can slide back and forth to make for easy cleaning and flexible movement is an idea worth considering..??
that'll piss the purist's off though!! :lol: ... but new old skool it is!! ;)
 
Today we went for a play. :D

Thanks again to everyone helping me....Us to try and get this right.

I could do with a picture of the rear hatch top and bottom curtain set up
And also the pleated side (wardrobe) window if anyone could be so kind. :)
I think there is a runner at the bottom as well as the top and wanted to see a picture as mine is absent. :roll:

Thanks.
