Before I bought my Westy, I had an '86 GL that we used for camping.  I made
some wooden frames with screening tacked  on.  It worked well.  Slide open
the window, insert frame into track and slide the window back against the
frame.

Well, then.  That begs the question...  Where do you get VW screens for,
say, a non-Westy Wolfsburg?  I made my own - using screen material from
some huge home-type center, and sticky-back Velcro - but they look bad and
the Velcro is losing it's glue, so it does not stay put on the window frame
any more.

If you don't have a Westfalia, they don't fit. The window frames are
different on Westies to accommodate the screens.  We sell the screens too,
but specify them as "Westfalia-only."
