  View original topic: Need Pics - Locations of Snaps, Late Westy Front Curtain
TeamSpatula Tue Jul 24, 2012 8:19 am

Howdy. I am camperizing a bus, and unfortunately the pics I took when pulling this stuff from the parts bus didn't turn out. So, I would appreciate any clear, detailed pictures from a 76-79 Westy showing the locations of the snaps for the front windshield curtain. I found EZ Gruv's excellent set of pics for the rear hatch screen, and am wondering if anyone has similar pics of the front curtain...also the child's cot bracket mounts would be great. I've found a few isolated pics of those, but not a clear set.
Thanks,

If no one has any before then I can take them at lunch for you.

Ya .....no problem at all.

Speaking of snap locations, I always thought they could have put a couple in the middle at the top. Draping around mirror.....folding under visors etc to support the middle always kinda pissed me off. Visors barely hold up their own weight.


Little piece of Velcro would work too........but that would not be "Original"

nice pics - The middle (mirror)area clothes pins work too.

I've gotta add snaps for my westy once I get it running/driving, oddly enough 74-75 didn't have them, also for the middle you could cheat, get a really good magnet and place that in the middle of the curtain to hold it in place (my grandmother had several added to the curtains on their 79 westy and a strip of them around the rear screen to keep a nice seal)

I have used clothes pins.............but not magnets. Mags are a great idea !

they are also fairly cheap, even cheaper if you've got some old pc harddrives laying around
