window screen 3rd gen 4Runner
12 Attachment(s)
Every time I've slept in my 4Runner with the windows cracked I didn't like the idea of mosquitoes getting in. A couple of times I woke up to the high pitched buzz of those nasty wings at my ear so a little experiment last night and we have a spring fit screen. I put it on the passenger rear because I can't really look though it anyway when in the driver's seat. It turned out baggy which bothers me a little but not enough to do anything about it at the moment. I used a sewing machine with a stretch stitch for the screen and used stainless 304 welding rod tigged at the joints. I think it might get sucked out If I roll the windows down all the way on the highway so that's another issue to think about. I might epoxy a small neodymium magnet to the upper left corner. I think that would take care of it. Not the greatest but at least it's an idea to build off of.

That is an excellent idea. I cut screens to fit the outside and used magnets to hold them on, but your idea is a lot cleaner. Thanks for the posting.

I was toying with this idea as well a few weeks ago. I had some old military mesh laying around and was thinking of stitching small rope into it and tucking it into the window seals. I cut a piece and just glued the rope into it. It worked pretty good and the mesh fabric will roll up and stuff wherever you need to stow it. I just need to get one of my female friends to do the sewing on the final product. Your set up looks pretty sweet though.
