Don't want to pay VW scene tax, so I'm guessing a caravan/RV outfit might be the way to go? I don't want hideous swirly "retirement home" fabric patterns either

Curtains in non-standard sizes?
Anyone got a recommendation for reasonably-priced curtain manufacturer (self-fit, I don't trust anyone!) preferably in the South East, who could make some oversize curtains to suit our 1995 SA and supply high-quality tracks and fittings too? If you're not familiar with SA's, only the tailgate and cab windows are the same size as pre-1990 German-built buses:

I made my own, using neodymium magnets for mounting to preserve the originality of the bus.
