Factort Rear Side Window Blind Retrofit - What Do I Need
Hi all
Thinking of retrofitting the factor option rear side window blinds that pull across the windows to keep sunlight off my daughters face.
Appreciate they arent the best idea but Ive not found a better solution yet and wanted to keep the factory look so going to consider this.
I know i need the trim piece with the blind rolled up inside it and a cover piece but what about the little hook on the rear part of the door frame, do i need a full new internal frame kit for each side or does the blind kit install over my current one?
Anyone have part numbers?
Thanks in advance
Carl

From what I understand, I don't think it is possible. Also, I have them and they are not all that great. They go from front to back and have a slit on top for the "peg" to keep the screen in place. A kid can easily pull the peg off track. It leaves a gap at the bottom of the window. All other vehicles, X5, Q7, Pilot, have them going from bottom up.
