1 Window Pod Installation Your VanShades Window Pods are supplied assembled and ready for you to install. If your Window Pods are supplied naked for you to carpet, we recommend removing the blind by prising the tension clip with a screwdriver. Roll up the blind and pop it in a bag to prevent any glue getting on it. Fixing your Window Pods is easy, however you may need an extra pair of hands to hold the Pod in place whilst you screw in the fixings. Your Window Pods are supplied with the correct fixings which are designed to easily cut into the steel of your vehicle. holes in Pods, G,H,E,D and I are for manufacturing use only. Do not use any of the pre-drilled holes as the screw will pass directly through the hole. Do not overtighten fixing on first fix, tighten them individually after the Pod is installed and then finish by putting the black bolt covers over the bolts. Do not screw the TE bolts through the front of the Pods.
