I have just purchased the rear window curtain/shade hardware for my 35 3W restoration project. I have the reel and the two attachments that the reel attaches to. What I don't have is the hardware (female end) that goes on shade tab and the male end that goes on the interior material above the rear window. Lebaon Bonney sells the material for the curtain but they do not sell these two hardware pieces. Has anybody installed one of these rear window curtains lately? If so can you give me some advice as to where I can get these two pieces. I would like to be correct as possible

I appreciate any info on these rear window shades.Thanks for your help.

Those pieces are almost impossible to find. Of course you know the shade unrolls up not down like a house shade. It mounts at the bottom of the window not the top. FYI. ken ct I have a 36 with the shade installed. ken ct.
 
I think it was just a round domed snap fastener - is that what you're looking for?

What do you have on yours Ken?
 
Yes that is exactly what I am looking for. Do you have any pictures of what this snap looked like for a 35 I guess I was lucky to find what I did. Thanks for the replies
 
First picuture shows snap type fastener and second shows what I believe is the correct fastener for the shade.

Thanks guys that is exactly the info I needed. Interestingly I have the screw type piece that goes above the window. Until I received this info I thought it was some old screw that somebody had screwed into the body frame above the window. I appreciate the help
