Sun blind fitting?

ian7675 · Sep 14th, 2012, 19:42

I must be thick or something but I can't work out how these clips are supposed to sit on my V50. Does the blind sit in between the rubber and the glass or is it on the outside of the rubber? Such a simple thing has got me stressed and I hope somebody knows what I mean from how I've described it. Somebody please help!

edit: I should mention they are the ones on the rear doors.

Hi, i have these fitted to my v70.If they are the same the clip should be fitted under the rubber.Lift it back and place the clip around the metal of the window so as the blind sits on the outside of the rubber and clips into the clip ,hope this makes some sence

I struggled with mine and not even Volvo knew how to fit them. Undo the window and pull the rubber seal away from the door. Insert the smaller end of the clip onto the metal lip and then put the rubber seal back over the clip.

Thanks guys all sorted now. Shame they're not the greatest fit but I suppose they are only blinds.
