Replacing Front Window Screen

Original screen gone in this '93 Sunlite Camper. How is it replaced? Different than usual type. This is the small front window near the cab.

  • Reddog, thought that too and bought the material. The groove was too large for the plastic stays. might have to make some sort of frame.
  • Some screen frames have a small piece of plastic that makes it a force fit on the bottom of the track.

    Most screens are installed using the same method as a house screen, but there are exceptions. For just one screen, I would probably just take the TC (or screen frame) to a screen shop and have them replace the screen.

    Do you have a photo?

  • I use to live in Arizona and I use to make my own shade screens. You can buy all of the materials needed at Home Depot. It's not that hard once you get the hang of it. It would cost around 20 big ones by the time you were done.

  • Now that is a challenge. No see ums get through and bite in Az. I'll have to come up with something. Thank you.
  • A lot of campers that vintage never had a screen on that window, they were left open to pass things into the truck cab through a sliding rear window.
