Does anyone know of a place that I can buy the snap on curtains for a 99 Eurovan MV? |

Sorry I'm not much help, but I've been wondering if curtains were standard in all MV and Weekender models, or just the latter. _________________ Casey--

Snap in curtains are not going to be an easy find. _________________ Farfignewton!

Price the fabric at $60, one hour of seamstress time to double hem, and put the snaps in yourself.
You get exactly the colour and fit you want _________________ .ssS! |

Pm me if you need measurements.
I think 99 and 02 are the same _________________ .ssS! |

Are the snaps for the tie-backs, or does the entire curtain snap into place? My Weekender has sliding tracks for the curtain hooks _________________ Casey--

On the MV, the entire curtain snaps on and off. It's a bit of a pain because you have to drag them out and put them up every time. What's nice about the sliding curtains is also that they're more discreet. _________________ Farfignewton! |

Right, because yours is the Weekender. The non-weekender (non-poptop) MV has snap curtains only. _________________ Farfignewton! |

I didn't know about this MV vs. MV Weekender curtain difference. Interesting! Makes sense, and is something @xtremjeepn has alluded to when posting about pop-top conversions, but it's new info to me!
Now, if only someone would make two-sided snaps that don't nearly pierce your fingers when snapping the curtains in place... |

I'm not sure if they are model correct for you but GoWesty has curtains listed in the eurovan category. |

Yep, original MV grey on good shape. I値l have to take a closer look at the set I have. Maybe later today.
I致e seen sets go for $250......which I honestly think is too high personally.
Let me peek at these again when I知 in the shop and I値l let you know. _________________ http://www.cavevan.com |

I just got a 2003 MV...but I see the curtain snaps along both sides of the van. I need the grey curtains, too. Anyone offering to sell or know where I can get them? Did everyone's MV come with curtain rails except for mine? |
