Retractable Shade for MKII (1984)

khills · 10-03-2006, 01:57 AM

what happened to the one that came with the car? if you dont have it anymore..it wouldnt be a big deal to make one, actually. I have the same predicament. I bought a sound system for my '86 and the retractable cover that is in the car has nothing to hook onto. ANYWAY to make one you just need a dowel with about 3-4' of fabric. Just put the dowel in the cradles that the original was installed (right behind the rear speakers) then glue the edge of the fabric to the dowel, and roll it up. when you want to pull it out, just pull the fabric and make some hooks to hook it on to the back 'wall' of the trunk

thats my best advice for now
