I can offer these to listmembers for $110.00 which includes shipping.

The screen kits are a quality product made in Germany and include complete
instructions with photographs.

My cost on these in more than Ron is asking for his.  Cost is based on how
many I order and what the exchange rates are at the time.  If I were to buy
these again today, my price would be about $5 less as current exchange rates
are more favorable.

In addition, I now have more favorable buying power with Germany as I have
moved up a couple of dealer levels with Reimo.  I have adjusted my price on
the screens to reflect my new pricing just to be fair.

My goal is to import products that are of good quality and not available here
in the US.

I am bringing current Euro Camper accessories to the US, and don't care much
about how close they are to original equipment.  Westfalia buys their screens
and canvas from the same suppliers as the other German conversion companies.
If I thought there was any good reason to pay a much higher amount for a
screen kit that was identical to Reimo's but had the Westfalia name on it, I
would.

JC Whitney sells screens that attach on the outside of your van using a
magnetic strip.  The screens that I offer as well as Ron, are mounted inside
your van and don't interfere with the operation of your sliding door.
