Picked up a rear sun blind for my uncle yesterday and fitted the parcel shelf in, no problem”¦”¦”¦.. now to fit the clips!!!

Had a feel around the headlining and the ”ahole”a seems bigger than what the 2 clips! I don’t want to just go ahead and cut into the headlining without being sure, has anyone have any guides/pics of it fitted or even better being fitted?

With the parcel shelf in.....


The clips in question....


headlining.........

the clip holes will be there you've just found the bigger cut outs for the roof frame lightening

i'll go get you a pic Mo

Ahh thanks, top stuff!!!

Thank God I didnt cut it out then lol!

the middle of the clip hole is 15 and a half inches approx from the middle of the leather lift handle on the blind ,cut in an x shape...it's daunting isn't it

pull the blind up and feel, do it like 5 times so your certain, cut the X , try fit the clip, youl probably have to make the cuts bigger aswell, but not too big- slowly does it, is there no local zoner who can do it ?

love the rear blind

Thanks gents! So the clips go on either end and not the middle I dont remember seeing any hooks on eith ends of the blind will have to check tonight! looking at the picture I have of the blind fitted I cant see any hooks either.....are they seperate?

no the hooks should be on the blind.Do NOT cut the holes bigger as advised above, cut inside the shape instead and the clip goes on over the excess material and helps it get a tight fit when pushed home into place !

Thanks, I really dont remember seeing the hooks on the blind! do they clip on to the blind or are they glued/screwed on? if they are not there i guess a visit to the dealers is required...

sure the roof clips are NLA bud, not sure about the ones on the blind itself though.

they are screwed on,if you look where abouts the hooks should be you should be able to see the screw holes ?

I have a pair of clips here for you for the blind

Cheers Andy!

the clips are still available i bought some not long ago have them brand new here still

All done









Cheers gents!

just need some rear head rests now to finish the look, i think e30s look bare without them now

They seem to get harder to get hold of day by day

and he knows where there are 2 pairs of black leather headrest for sale for both cars

That reminds me..I must get my rear blind sorted..I have a blind on a spare ratty parcel shelf that I need to fit but it needs a REALLY good clean (the shelf), I have a spare sunblind for sale if anyone's interested, it has a few 'dimples' if thats what you'd call them, pm me if anyone's interested:)
