Does anybody know how to remove a valance? I don't see any screws or anything.

A sledge hammer will usually get it off.  I just could not resist. I do not have a clue but if you discover how to remove it let us know.------------- 2017.5 RPod 179 2017 Jeep Unlimited Wrangler 2017 Chevy Colorado Z71 Off Road Crew Cab 2 Weiner dogs Great wife puts up with my BS ❤️ Thoroughbred Racing.

Mine is held in place by 2 angle brackets. Flip the 2 levers that hold the blinds up, once you get those out of the way you will see the brackets

Henryv, the valances on our 172 are held on by little angle brackets with small screws at each of the two ends. They're hard to see, unless you can turn your bifocals upside down. I removed both for blind repairs and though it was a bit of a pain in the butt, got them both back on in the original positions. The brackets and screws tend to be obscured by the valance fabric edges. ------------- Never leave footprints behind. Fred & Maria Kearney Sonoma 167RB Our Pod 172 2019 Ford F-150 4x4 2.7 EcoBoost |
