I need to re string a couple of day/night blinds in our Cougar 331mks I have no problem with the restringing but cant see how the blind is attached to the valance I see no clips or screws. So before I go any further I need to know how they are attached.

On most trailers, the valance is a "luan box" covered with foam and upholstery material. The shade is screwed to the top of the valance box and then the entire assembly is screwed to the trailer sidewall/bottom of the overhead cabinet. Typically there are two #2 Roberts square drive screws, one near each end of the valance box. They will be behind (between) the shade upper bar and the sidewall of the trailer. On longer windows, you may find 3 or 4 or more screws, but on windows about the size of the side windows on your slides, there's only 2 screws.

Thanks I see them now I was expecting to leave the valance in place and just remove the blind, all's good now
