Plastic wall panel removal

[Dolomite Pete]

I've got an Autocruise Rhythm and the rear side window blind has come loose on one side. I need to get the panel off to have a look and fix it. It looks like the panel unscrews from the bottom and the seat top bit and side magazine pocket are on Velcro so no problems there. But I can't see what happens at the top, under the top lockers. Has anyone else got this type of van and removed a side panel? Any help greatly appreciated before I have a go!

Hi, I don't have your van, but when I've watched YouTube videos of vans being made, it looks like the cupboards are fastened to the walls, then the walls are put into the van and finally the exterior panels and roof are put on. Might be worth googling interior caravan repairs or ringing a repair shop to see if it can be done. You might have to cut the panel below the lockers.

Job done! It only took 30 mins in the end. If anyone else has a similar van, the side panel comes off very easily, with three screws at the bottom (shown on original photos) and three at the top, which are under plastic covers on the underside of the locker. It then pulls down. The black pads are Velcro to hold the magazine pouch and the cushion top. Once the panel is off the blinds are easy to fix.

Well done Pete.
