Hi Jeff, Eurocampers has pre-made pop-in screens that are easy to re-screen. I was aware of these, but what I don't know is whether you can drive with them installed, and whether they're larger than the standard Westy window screens. But for your purposes they may be just right. http://secure.mycart.net/catalogs/catalog.asp?prodid=4757892&showprevnext=1 Cheers, Peter
