I have a pair out of a camper in my GL.  They will fit in the window.  You may
then slide the window shut leaving the 1/3 size screened area open.  Note that
regular vanagon windows are 50/50 and the camper and some weekender/wolfsburgs
have 33/33/33 windows.  You'll have to look at them to see what I mean.  

This isn't a perfect solution however, as the GL windows will not shut with
the screen in place.  You have to take the screens out to shut the window.  

There was also a thread about building your own screens.  Check the archives
if this sounds like an interest for you.
