Will these screws work with my Vanagon curtain track?

Yes, these screws are designed specifically for Vanagon campers (1980-1991) to replace the original tiny screws that often vibrate loose and fall out.

What should I do if the screw holes in my track are stripped and too big?

If the holes are stripped, apply a bit of wood glue to the end of a wooden toothpick, break the toothpick off inside the hole, and let the glue set. Once set, the hole will be ready for the new screws.

Are there any specific tools or tips needed for installation?

Because the heads of these screws barely fit through the track opening, you will need a very small screwdriver and a steady hand to guide them into place.

Can I use these screws with aftermarket curtain gliders?

No, these screws will not work with aftermarket curtain gliders because the screw head is too proud to clear the top of the glider. We recommend using OEM German gliders if you are replacing those as well.

Day after day, Vanagon campers roll through our shop with their aluminum curtain tracks hanging down. What's the deal? Well, those tiny little screws that hold the track up tend to vibrate loose and fall out. Replacing them doesn't seem like a big deal, but finding a screw of that size is pretty tricky. After much searching, we located a screw that is very close to the original and works great... as long as you follow these two very important conditions:

1) The heads on these screws barely fit through the opening in the track itself. You will need a tiny little screwdriver and a steady hand to weasel them into place.

2) Sometimes the old screws holes are stripped out and are too big, so the new screws have nothing to grab onto. If this is the case, put some wood glue on the end of a wooden toothpick and break off the toothpick in the hole. Once the glue sets up a bit, the hole is ready for a new screw.

12 screws per package, 2.5mm x 12mm.

Fit note:
These screws WILL NOT work with our aftermarket curtain gliders. The head of the screw is just a little too proud to clear the top of the glider as it passes by. So, if you are also in need of curtain gliders, make sure you choose the OEM German ones.

Definitely the ticket

These really do work with the track. The only downside is if the previous owner installed massive screws and made the hole bigger. I just shifted the track a few millimeters and I was back in business.
