Subject:      Curtains and screens 91GL 7-Pass
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Putting some screen material over the sliding side windows and came up with Velcro coins that stick to rubber seal on driver side and metal sliding door on passenger side. Then stcik other Velcro piece to screen material and match up. Allows to undo Velcro to open/close sliding windows. Finding that the velcro coins on the drivers' side don't adhere well to the rubber seal and thinking about a spot of gorilla glue, but long-term removal of glue is bothering me. Thoughts? Also wanted to use the garment hangers for curtain rods(aka bungees) but there are no stock garment hangers aft of the windows above the quarter panels. Was gonna install a couple, but have seen pics of others curtains and have seen a plastic 1/2-3/4 strip just screwed in above the windows. Is this a good idea? Will weight the curtains with magnet coins or something. Was gonna use magents for the screens, too but drivers side doesn't allow this around the windows.

P.S. I have a cheap power inverter that goes into the cig lighter. Any concerns about charging cell, laptop, etc with this cheap model?

Thanks in advance.
