    I have broke many of the cheap plastic sliders clips that hold the front curtain that covers the side windows & Windshield on a volvo. Is there a way to replace the broken ones, or does one have to get a new curtain?
    Thanks, phil

    You can replace the sliders. You might need to drill a hole through the new ones and use a needle and thread or those stupid paper clip looking fasteners on the fabric. There should be a tab on the center of the rail that you can pull off, then you can put the sliders to the left or right from there.

    They’re not a lot of money and it’s more about investing in your comfort. No different from buying a CB, plug-in cooler, etc.
