Impulse had an I shaped rod that fasened to the window frames by way of a steel clip. The curtains had small rolerdollies sewn into them. The curtains just melted when I washed them so I've left the windows uncovered since, I really like those peakaboo curtains thanx for the tip.I am sure that the I shaped rod is available at places like home depot or some like place as there was a new one one the boat when we bought it.
