Default Rear Interior Venetian Blinds???

Quote:
REAR VENETIAN BLINDS TO SUIT THE REAR WINDOW OF A EF-EF2-EL FALCON SEDAN 1995-97.

PROTECTS BOTH PASSENGERS AND UPHOLSTERY FROM THE DIRECT SUN

NO DRILLING REQUIRED TO FIT

FITS IN MINUTES,

TESTED TO 20G FORCE.

CONTOURED TO THE SHAPE OF THE GLASS,

MADE OF STEEL NOT PLASTIC.

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED

LOOKS GREAT !!
What the? Tested to 20G's

Must be why it costs $195.00 OMG !!

I would maybe consider buying one but not for $195 - loose $100 off that then we are talking

Its good that Company's go out on a Limb to still Make custom make stuff for E-Series by its always to damn expensive

All you need is a yappy small ugly dog and a bowler’s cap on the parcel shelf. Then enjoy your retirement. :

However, if you had a ganster theme with those chrome wire wheels on bags then they would fit right in, the 20G of force would help deflect the bullets :

These are the first things you pull off you newly bought, second hand, grandpa spec car, why would you want to put them back on for?

these are different to the grandpa spec ones that go on the outside of the window, these go on the inside and when sprayed the same colour of the car can look good

Pffft. It doesnt look good with them, it just didnt look bad. Irrelevant now as it has std 'mont lights... Plus boost!
Oh, and yeh the venetians look good on his car, but theyre not from that ebay mob - which I agree with you on being overpriced.

Is someone a bit jealous that there car doesnt get good comments for Altezzas?

Venetians go with the old school look. Look awesome on a car with no bodykit, big rims (or factory standard) white/red walls and a big HP motor.

Exactly - they do, that would be PRE+XA XB XC - not after and not just beacause a mate has it on his car

When old school becomes E-Series be sure to let me know

Apparently interceptors look cool as well - if you want your Ford to look like a VL just buy one.............

Lol at someone with altezzas on an e-series making fun at venetians on e-series!

It's all personal taste, some like it some hate it, but at the end of the day, who cares as long as the owner's happy!

yes very true. Lucky we don't all like the same thing otherwise all our cars would look identical and thus making things very tedious around here.

Can anyone show me a pic of the venetians on someones car?
Most of my comments in here have been in jest more than anything. I hope my doiley idea catches on though.

I woulda thought this could be construed as criticism of them on e-series

Anyhow, like you, I'd grab a set for my daily if they weren't $200 new, but they're near impossible to find secondhand.


On the subject of venetians, does anybody have any that AREN'T noisy?!

Maybe the $195 gets you a set that doesnt rattle and thats why it is says they are tested to 20G's?

Both look terrible and good luck cleaning the inside of the back window! They only really suit old classic cars in my opinion.

I know the owners of both those cars, and while I'm not a fan of some of their mods, they're top blokes. TOASTED, I hate to tell you but you're wrong about the flat-brimmed hats tilted to the side.

I'm not a fan of venetions, altezzas, stockies or stickers but each to their own
