Default How to fit the rear manual sun blind

Hi.. since April and the blind sitting in the box I finally gave it a go and fitted it to the car.
It's pretty tricky so here goes,
If you car has fold down seats then ignore the following bit !

With non foldable rear seats here is what you have to do.

Take the seat base out - pull from the back of the seat base and lift the front of the seat base it will then pop out.
Take all the head rests out of seat back as these hold in the set back. remove the seat.
You may need to remove the seat belt bolt, make sure you put it back correctly.

At the top of the back window, remove the plastic roof trim - this exposes two torque screws, remove them (keep them safe)
Then remove the left and right hand panels, detaching them from the parcel shelf.

From in side the boot, release the tabs that hold the shelf down, slide it out and fit the blind - and then re-install in the reverse order, It took me about 2 hours to fit, although if I had the instructions I think it would take you about 1 hour max, happy to mail over any pics if anyone wants a more detailed view.

Thanks
Richard.
