First time I've done photo's - hope it works.
They give full block out from the sun
Barn Doors
You can see how they tuck in behind the trim.
Rear Barn Door
These ones are starting to slip a bit at the top because the plastic holding strips have gone hard and yellow and shrunk a bit - they are over 6 1/2 years old though.
Side Window
I just roll the window down and attach the
bulldog clip and roll the window up to leave a small gap for the hot air to get out.
Drivers Door
This one will give you the idea of how they are made.
Rear Passenger Door
This one shows how the plastic strip is sewn on and tucks in behind the trim. I only tuck in about 10 to 15 mm behind the trim - it depends on what folds in the panel get in the way (trial and error).
Rear Barn Door
I hope these help you out. All up the total cost was less than $60 - $70 dollars for all the materials. I have had factory made ones before and the foil separated from the insulation and started to perish. The material that I have used here is normally used to insulate building walls and roofs.
Anyway - works well for me - attracts heaps of comments from others.
Cheers
Anthony
