VW T6 fly sliding screen

[Zven]

Hi I’m looking for a sliding fly screen and have found a few but they are costly! Having done so much to our van I feel this is the one thing we would love to have. Has anyone bought and installed one for a transporter as I am struggling to find a video or multiple photos that really show how the product works? Or if anyone has had one professionally fitted after the van has been converted
Thank you in advance

Is this for the middle or sliding door or for some of the windows?

It’s for the main sliding door

have you considered making one your self or asking the Mrs or mum to run it up for you on a sewing machine. Ordinary net is unsuitable OK for mosquitoes, horse fly and wasps but the midge especially the cunning Scottish variety just looks at it like it is an invite to them and fly through without touching the sides. Noseum or no seeum or words to that effect is what is needed and has mutch finer net with smaller holes. have a look at some designs and see if they suit you then buy the material by the metre.

I have the Horrex/Reimo one. It works very well and is a good addition to the van and improves usability. It’s supposed to be a 1hr job to fit, took me 2 days and I like to think that I know what I’m doing
It comes as a complete unit, including the bottom step which incorporates the bottom guide rail for the screen. My problem was that the step is one size to suit a caravelle/multivan floor, my van has a Reimo bed on rails, so my floor is 20mm thicker, which the step can’t accommodate. So I had to get creative. Very happy with it. I bought mine from UK leisure parts who are the main Reimo importers to the UK and aren’t far from me.

That looks great. I'm very interested in these, but dang they are expensive! What does it look like from the inside when retracted?
