Front side window screens can easily be made in the comfort of your own home for under $10 CND. All it takes is some magnetic strips, a glue gun, two pieces of screening and about one hour of your time. The window screens I made for my Westy are held in place with a flexible magnetic strip on the top and bottom; the sides of the screen are secured by tucking the "bow" side of the screen into the vent window opening; the "stern" side of the screen is secured by closing the door on it. This design allows one to roll the windows up or down without having to remove the screens. The magnetic strips on the top and bottom only, allow for the screens to be rolled up for easy storage. Pics available if interested. Roy Olynick '87 Westfalia GL (till death do us part) '91 Honda Civic SE '01 Honda Civic LX |
