Rear Luggage Blind roller type

[jez_anderson]

Can any one tell me how to remove the blind from its holder?

I have unwound it to check its condition and give it a clean and now it doesn't want to wind back it!!

Thanks

I just repaired my '86 one with new plastic ends. Had to modify one or two bits as the design seems to have changed but...
1. Unscrew the blind from the car, one screw holds it on either side.
2. Then drill out pop rivets that hold plastic ends onto tube (you'll need replacements or small screws that I used instead).
3. Once you have access to the roller blind you will find you can wind on tension at one end -- there is a spring roller in the centre of the blind.
4. Reattach plastic ends and refit.
Hope this helps, I should have photgraphed my repair as I went along (and the handbrake cable replacement I just did as well...)
