Swish Autoglide to Silent Gliss Autoglide

[Robert Chasmer <robert.chasmer@xxxxxxx>]

I have two Swish AutoGlide Curtain Rail systems (Motor, K600
Controller,
Rail, IR Remote).  Both are in my lounge with one for the front window
and
the other for the rear patio door.  The rail for the rear curtain
has
recently failed, I guess due to the cheap plastic nature of the rail. 
I've
managed to fix it a couple of times but the problem is due to the tap
inside
stetching and the cog mecanism poping out.

I remember last year on the list someone mention that the Autoglide
range
has been taken over by Silent Gliss.  The range has been
completely
overhauled and now has an aluminium track and Silent Gliss non stretch
belt
drive operation technology to give much improved levels of performance
and
reliability.

I hoped to replace my failing curtain rail, but would prefer to retain
my
fully functioning motors and controllers.  I've spoken to GB
Interiors, and
they tell me that Silent Gliss will only supply complete units at
present.

Does anyone know of a source for either an old Swish Style 2m (or
longer)
rail, or how to persuade Silent Gliss to allow "upgrades" from
Swish to
there new fancey aluminum rails.
