One of the clear brackets a cord free cellular shade used to hold firmly down snapped off after a while, so I improvised this alternative. Riveted the magnets from a cabinet latch to the inside of each end cap, and nibbled away the plastic on the bottom so that they just protrude. Then I attached the plates that came with them to the sill give it something to grab ahold of. It works very well now and is easy to position even in the dark. A further refinement would be to fully recess the plates or possibly switch to stronger magnets that could hold through the plastic itself.
