I have been toying with the idea of fitting venetians to my wagon for a couple of reasons.... 1, privacy, 2, heat, 3, looks......

would anyone be interested if i can do some modified system to allow my blinds to be used in the back of wagons ?
I am going to experiment with some 25mm or 16mm slimline and nightline venetians, APPROX 60 colours,metallic and gloss that will be able to be adjusted to open and be fully functional.

See how i go ! :ugeek:

G'day mate I suspect it could be hard to justify but in way's I'm curious as it would be a nice idea, particularly for parking, especially if you only have the one mirror, or none etc.

you'd be best to focus on the old school in my opinion.

It sounds pretty cool, if I had a wagon I'd love a set of rear & side venetians that open/close at the flick of a switch! Privacy + security + cool mod factor.

I wouldn't have put them on my last wagon though, that was a spend-as-little-as-possible-on shitter

would cost about 150 a side ! would have about 10mm either side gap due to curvature of window framing etc but overall very doable and would look cool ! will make two up when we are a bit quieter !
