Silent Gliss rails

Hi all.
Bought some nice new curtains but having a little trouble with the front one.
The original arrangement had flat aluminium bars above the doors, and a separate curtain on a wire which you hooked on and strung across the front.
My wife spoke to the curtain supplier who suggested that the more usual/better way is to use a Silent Gliss rail, which we bought.

Has anyone got any ideas or photo's on how to fit them?
They are extruded aluminium - is it possible to bend them round the cab without deforming the 'F' shape profile?
I'm having a little trouble visualizing it, especially around the sun visors.
Any help/photo's would be most welcome.
Cheers.

yes it bends , but you need to be carefull you dont kink it.

under/over the sunvisors
1 peice or 2 peice split at the mirror!

best way to bend it is fill it with the curtain hooks(the ones that slide in the rail)where you are going to bend it ,this will help not to kink it.
