I want to cover my car, "handy woman" how did you install it? Also I am thinking of putting it outside as a window cover, anyone try that?

I installed it with tarp poles and tarp cords. The poles are anchored into the cement via the footings. I chose this as a temp structure, you can use a stronger pole and system for a permanent structure. Have not used as a window cover, purchase special solar screens for that.

Shade cloth on the outside of windows works great, but I would get beige rather than the black pictured here. I made lightweight wood frames and stapled the shadecloth to those, then attached them above and below the window with screws. This allows easy removal and replacement.

I didn't get Instruct. Either, I just clean the window very well, Make sure its dry. You will have one shot at this. I had someone help me hold / line it up, So take your time, I started in the center and worked my way out would, I used a credit card. Then slowly peal the backing off making sure it is sticking. I'm not sure if this is the right way but it worked for me. Good Luck.

I rolled it out for th width if the window and pieced for the height of the window as it was easier to match th pattern. You can see where I pieced it up close but not from a distance so much. I figured if it looked bad I could cover it with a long valance. It is great for privacy which is what I was looking for and still let's light in.

It is kind of messy, and if you work on the roof of your car from the bottom, you will find out things can get uncomfortable. If you choose to give it a try i reaggle suggest having an extra hand, tape and paper to cover other parts you dont want to mess, and come piece of cloth and a degreaser (spray) to remove from hands and/or windows. follow manufacturer instructions.

I have also just used it on my windows. It would need to be attached to something to stay secure. Tape will not stick to it. You would probably have to use nails. Thinking of using this also when I enclose my covered patio. Good luck!

At the beach I lay it in the sun, usually the hood of my car, then hang it from one corner of my 10x10 pop-up canopy. I have to crouch a little but it works. In a pinch I've had a 2nd person hold it up while showering, but it gets heavy fast.

It is not recommended in the instructions. Rolling the window down would probably peel it off.

As stated above. It's a very nice cover. A simple hose off with garden hose and scrub brush would do it. Its waterproof, so you could even just use a really damp towel and get it clean without taking it out of the car.

It is for the outside of the windows, not inside use. Unless your tint is on the outside...................

I didn't see how it fit at first but it made sense when I put it up to the window. It rubbed at first but doesn't now. Been on for over a year. Hope it helps-

I agree that it is a difficult installation. So difficult that when I found that the space between nose sections where the tabs had to go were so tight that they wouldn't fit without removing some bolts, I put it back in the box and returned the cover. I do think that water under the cover would eventually damage the paint finish on the car. Not worth the trouble involved.

Not a good idea. First it will probably be peeled off by the window's rubber seal. If the shade film does somehow go down inside your car door with the window, it may not come back out!

That's a good one. I thought about this too but it hasn't been enough a burden to do anything. I considered paint but that may end up looking bad. You could fasten a decorative curtain across the interior roof or even black plastic or dark window screen. All come in large rolls. Good luck and post what you did!

Product is made as a side door guard. Not sure what you mean by read window trim, go around the edge of the window? seal the window? You can not make turns with it- just straight- too thick. You even have to heat it up just get it more flexible to apply on the side of the car. You probably need to get the specific window trim made for you car. I think you've be wasting your $ if you tried this as a rear window trim. Hope this helps.

Your unit should be vented to the outside in some manor. What I did wa make a partition that I could vent through and close the window or screen on it. I also sealed it with aluminum tape. (bought at Home Depot or an Auto parts store.)

It's best to install item on the inside of your walls (to be weather wise). You have double sided adhesive strips that you press along the sides and top of your garage wall (which I did not use because 100 degree temps were a problem for me). I used "L" shaped aluminum rails for a permanent structure. This item is also easily rolled up and tied at the top with permanent flecro straps sewned into the screens that enable your cars easy access.

Ours came woth instructions. U have 2 ways to do it. Can place it in the border of the window or on the window moldings. Dont use the screws it comes with they are cheap
