My windows are 1966 aluminum windows. There isn't any frame around the aluminum to stick anything to, will these kits work on the aluminum frames?

I didn't have frames either. I stuck it to the walls almost a year ago and they are still there. I used them for saving air conditioning costs also. Can't imagine why the tape wouldn't stick to aluminum.

Hi. I have used this product. The two sided tape is probably the best I have ever used and I believe it will stick to your aluminum windows.

One of my windows does not allow much overhang. I drilled the braket in such a place where only the end cap is hanging over, less than 1 inch. You can arrange it with a lot of overhang as well. I love these, worked perfectly for all of my windows.

No I'm not too satified with the slats I received not not sure if your able to use them on a metal frame .

If the measurements of your rear window fit the size of the screen - then they work. We put them on our Toyota Camry and never took them off till the end of the summer. Make sure your windows are sparking clean, then wet the inside of the suction cup and attach. If there is any film on the window they will not stick. Best idea for keeping the sun out.

I wound up not using them only because my sister gave me a set she had that was somewhat different. If I used them, I would use two per window, just a little more security. Don't know about the 1940s double hung window, but they should work as they swing open to let the window open and close. Make sure gap between two windows isn't too wide. Also, I had an earlier pair that had a brass rod that held all parts together, not good. The rod kept slipping through holes; best if hinge is fixed or stable, rather held together by tension rod.

Nope. It doesn't do a thing to the windows. Mine have been in place for a couple of years, but I can still reposition the leading if I need to with no issues. I'd avoid repositioning however, only because it loses a bit of its adhesion. But the windows will be fine.

I dont know if this will help but i have a wood frame and i was able to use them...

Drill a hole slightly smaller than the thread diameter, and you should be able to screw them into the drilled hole. If the frame is aluminum it will be easier and the hole can be a little smaller so the threads will get a good grip on the soft aluminum.

They work with the existing hardware. I have a 70 year old house and I replaced the old knobs with the glass ones without changing any of the existing hardware. And, I loved the price!

Yeah I did this before I built my frame and it worked just fine. Just make sure it is stretched tight.

It would appear that the size 1 fits the older windows. That is what I bought and they fit fine.Otherwise, I don't know.

This will fit but you may have issues with the auto up windows. About half the time mine will go back down but if you close them slowly they will stay up. A little bit of a pain but I think these look a lot better than the ones that stick on the outside.

Hi, these frames are 6 1/4" by 12 1/4" with the installation holes 7 inches apart. They are supposed to have a universal fit. If a US license plate fits on your vehicle, this frame should work as well. Hope this helps!

I have had them installed on my 2013 double cab for over a year. Perfect. Install carefully into the window space, and then to ensure a good bond and to ensure a good opening that would not interfere with the operation of the windows, I wedged cardboard (from inside the window) into the space and let the windows remain up over night. After about a day, I removed the cardboard pieces and the windows have operated flawlessly ever since (for about 20000 miles now and a dozen automatic car washes). Again, I could not be more pleased. Good luck.

Yes, but the ones I purchased did not have the rear windows included. I can't imagine why, it would look silly and who would do that? Good luck.

yes, I would think so, the adhesive on the backs of the decals are like super postit note or painters tape. They decal wont look the same on the other side of the glass when looking at it from behind. Not sure if "heat" on the window would weaken the adhesive.

I have extra wide frames that are brand new. They are 6" wide. They will NOT fit.
