Default Curtains for REAR DECK?

Ok I've searched all over on CL and google and just cant find any info! I KNOW I saw the release of them not too long ago, but not anymore? Again, I'm looking for the curtains for the rear window and not the door windows thanks.

ive seen it done before and i was thinking about doing it but with my tint its relatively pointless and it would obstruct the rear line of sight. id say no but you can always measure the distance of the rear window and see if any companies make them

Well not necessarily, if they are pinned to the sides enough, you could get a pretty good view (I would think) and as for the tint, I'm not at 5% so when the sun shines through, you can still see the shadow of it. I think I've got 25%. Like my rear doors, yea you cant see them, but when the sun is shinning you can see a bit

Yea I ran across that, but kinda defeats the purpose though The curtains are strictly for that "look" as for that device is for the sun....

I talked to PG Motoring about that and they said that one of their customers made a rear window curtain set for 2 larges and made there own brackets. I was thinking about doing this as well...
