An inflatable curtain positioning system is disclosed that is inexpensive and does not require shape maintainers. The system includes an inflatable curtain prepared for installation in a vehicle. The inflatable curtain has a plurality of mounting members used to mount the inflatable curtain to a roof rail of a vehicle. The inflatable curtain, or sock housing the inflatable curtain, further includes a plurality of positioning members. The positioning members may engage the roof rail to optimally position portions of the inflatable curtain such that other components such as hand grips, and a vehicle headliner may be readily installed. The positioning members may permanently or temporarily position the inflatable curtain snug against the roof rail. The positioning members may be positioning tabs with holes to engage corresponding hooks formed in the roof rail. Alternatively, the positioning members may be a positioning loop formed in the sock. In another alternative, the positioning members are an adhesive material such as glue or two-sided tape.
