How do you get the valances off?

I can see a couple of screws attaching the valance over one window but don't see how to get a screwdriver to them. I don't know how the one above the door is attached at all.

I don't have side valances, only top.

Usually the screws you are seeing are going thru a 'L' shaped bracket that is also screwed to the valance. Just unscrew from the valance and leave the bracket attached to the wall. Not sure about the door valance but mine is done the same as the windows. These are installed last at the factory so getting them off should not be difficult.

Yes, I can see the L bracket but can't figure out how to get a screw driver to it. The valance above the door is closer to the wall and I can feel screws that seem to be put through from the front of the valance and then have a button screwed or glued on top of it.

It's probably obvious to most people, but I'm going to post this reply just in case someone else needs to remove the valance over the door.

The screws are under the covered "buttons" and those buttons just pull off, or may need a thin prybar to get them started.

The dinette has the same buttons on the side of the bench.

The more stuff I take apart in this trailer, the less secure I feel in it. Well built, it is not.
