I've been thinking about ways I can add some black drapes or cloth to block out the third-row windows for my car camping trips. Of course my old 2000 Exp isn't exactly flush with resale value, but I'd like to find an attachment method that isn't completely permanent or especially damaging.
My first thought was to use those self-adhesive lightweight plastic hooks. But they only bond up to 105 degrees, which is no good for parking in Texas summers. I could Gorilla Glue them, but they'd be there for life.
I could drive short screws or hooks into the plastic door trim -- but how far could I go before I hit metal?
I wonder if alligator clips, or something in a "money clip" shape, could be wedged between the trim edge and the headliner and then act as a clamp for the cloth.
Would actually love to hang a drape inside the rear windshield at night, but haven't figured that out yet either. There's just, like, nothing to attach anything to back there.
Any suggestions?
