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 got it for my mother. She returned it because she didn't like the thought of leaving the window like that. Also it wouldnt be very weather friendly you would have to insulate around it

Hi Kate, it only took me a few minutes and it was don so I suppose doing it often shouldn't be too much trouble. However, take care of the plastic parts that cover the "roots" (where they go into the car) because they are fragile when installing, in fact one of mine came broken but they replaced it immediately. Other than that, they stayed on for the last 2 years without a problem.

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.

Clean the area where you are going to put it and make sure it's dry. Just peel the decal off and stick it on the window. It can go on either inside or outside the car.

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!

No, It's Not A Big Enough Piece To Cover Even A Small Window, Maybe If It Was Bigger You could, And Only On The Rear Windows, IlleGal On The Front, It Could Be Used As A Small Strip At The Top Of You Winshield If You Were Up For it.

First I decided upon placement. I also placed a strip on each side of the tank so it reflects the light off the chrome. The thin layer of tape supplied will not secure it for long. I used a 3M molding and gasket silicone to secure it (this is what a car dealer uses to hold on the trim). I also placed one at the back of the engine and one under the seat. I wired all red connections to a two position switch and mounted the switch under a fairing panel. The black leads were combined and grounded to the frame. The switch was wired to the battery. I also used a heat shrinking weatherproof connector for all the lead connections (can be found at any car parts store). Hope this helps out. First I decided upon placement.

This let's in plenty of light. Its has netting /mesh vinal cover. Not air tight on the windows. I sewed velcro around the windows to seal them an put a heater inside. I think u may be colder than hear in California but over night I would suggest covering it with another plastic layer to help hold heat in for your type of weather. They have Velcro windows but not sealed all the way that's where I finished up with. Velcro around windows

A bit- the cover in my car covers the vents in the back, so I have to adjust the angle on the front vents and crack the windows- especially after daycare or running in the park. There are WAY more positives to it though- it's still holding up really well!

The chrome cover does not fit that good. I would just change color cover for the omg chrome part it's not that much more money. Hope that help you out.

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.

Totally weird, sounds like you've done all the right things...tried a razor blade yet? Sounds like it is impregnated into the glass, the way auto windshields have an 8 inch runner of tint across the top. I still don't think the adhesive remover has any value...have you tried goof off or OOPs? Since I can't picture it, I guess if it didn't look to weird you could put the film right over the top & hope it doesn't look bizarre. Sorry that's all I got

Hi...I placed the stickers on the inside of my car window. I felt they would last longer than being on the outside of the window. You just have to make sure they are not in your way of seeing out of that window. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

As they said... some screws and rigging will get it done. Just flex and pull it how u need to fit. Don't forget to insulate after though the exhaust gets HOT. You don't want warm hot air coming in from window, else your A?C defeats the purpose of doing it's job. I took some standard insulation roll R30/15 whatever you want (warehouse store) put it over the vent, and duck taped over it. Won't look pretty but neither does the vent. Your drapes will cover over that anyway so shouldn't be a problem. But you will save TONS on energy efficiency b/c this window vent is complete crap and useless to block out the air. Hope that helps.
