Well I don't know about more up-to-date vans than mine but the ones in mine just unscrewed from underneath - ended up with a crick in my neck doing them though as I had to half lie on the seats right up against the windows with my head underneath the pelmets. Worth it when they were re-covered and put back though as they looked so much better. ------------- Tigermouse

Ours unscrewed too - they were a nasty brown colour and I was going to recover them, but the van looked so much better and unfussy without that they have stayed off. You hardly notice the curtain track and it gives more light, I just changed the tie backs from the same brown to cream and it was a real makeover - very pleased.
Good luck!
