It's a very functional design, but they will not work in a non-Westy window, and are quite expensive ($49.95 each) for the flimsy pieces of plastic that they are. It's not worth trying to modify them to work in a non-Westy at that price, in my opinion. Better to fabricate something on your own. It doesn't seem it would be too difficult. Home centers and the like sell screen window kits for home use that could be used for this purpose. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot http://www.busdepot.com
