There should be some cables covered in black rubber that run from side to side above and below the glass, mounted to the hatch. Perhaps your Westy's hatch was replaced in the past with a hatch from a standard van ?

Do you mean to install them in the doors' windows ? The screens are for the sliding windows just behind the door. If you already knew that, then just keep rotating them until you find the right fit. They should snap into the insides of the window frames, with the glass open or closed. The curved corner towards the front. Don't drive with the screens in and glass open. If the screens are weak, the wind could mess them up.
