Anyone know where I can find locally a shower curtain rod, brackets and shower curtain to install in a tile shower? Approximately 33 inches width but can cut the rod and curtain to exact fit. If not available locally I guess Home Depot should have what I need. Thanks.

I know they sell metal curtain rods and the round brackets at the hardware store near Super Lake.  If you bring the exact measurements they can cut it to size.
They also sell the screws and the plastic plugs or 'taquetes',  make sure you have  good drill bit for drilling into the tiles..

They don't sell shower curtains but Walmart does and probably other stores as well..

I bought a shower curtain rod at Walmart. It is spring loaded so you don't have to cut it or mount it with brackets. The spring allows it to adjust to various sizes and holds the rod in place.

Soriana also has rods and curtains.
I bet the home store in Bugambilla Plaza has them too.

I also bought my adjustable shower curtain rods at Walmart. Both shower and bath size.

It all depends on whether you want something cheaply made or something that will last. My experience is that rods from walmart or home depot will end up rusting, and curtains will get very moldy. I would suggest looking online for something durable. I ended up buying a shower rod that came with the brackets, and a separate curtain from
ShowerRods.com
even bought a couple of bath accessories to match

I saw a guy selling them out on the Chapala Malecon.  He also had fresh pre-packaged egg and tuna salad sandwiches out of her the trunk.

Very Happy

Our Wallyworld stuff hasn't rusted in eight years.  Haven't had moldy curtains, either.  If you keep the bathroom aired out; no problem.  If it's steamy in there and the doors are closed after showering, it will rust and get moldy.

I'm just not a fan of paying U.S. prices and the import costs if I don't have to.
