Fly Screens

[KasKrn]

Hi All,

Have a swift mondial on a fiat Van.

 

The trouble with this is it has no fly screens for side and rear doors. So having had a look round on tinterweb i have found some but they seem quite expensive, and the more i spend on this the less i have for traveling. So, i was wondering if you guys/girls have any other solutions or things you have done to sort this.

 

Thanks in advance

On our old van we made up some from net curtains and they where held in place by Velcro, but nowhere near as convenient as the sliding ones on the Globecar.

Sliding fly-screens are available for panel-van-conversion side doors but (as you say) they are not cheap and I’m not aware of any equivalent for rear doors..

 

You could do as Colin did and opt for a basic approach that adapts something cheap and cheerful like this

or consider the more sophisticated, tidier (not outrageously expensive) purpose-designed screens advertised here

that should be suitable for a 2009 Mondial’s side and rear doors.

Alternatively have a look at cheap versions available for home use. There are some suitable for patio doors which have velcos top & side fixings with central magnets for opening, which can be cut to height.

 

Another alternative would be "windblockers" who do produce a standard for coachbuild doors but can also manufacture to size.
