I would keep both sets and use the screens when needed in a campground. Win, win.

[@stephanie_2189]

That’s what I was going to say, use the new ones while traveling and the screens once parked at the campground (or wherever.)

[@Marie-yx5ie]

Ye keep both Lulu. You did very well with the one you made, your a clever girl Lulu. It's brilliant all the tips you come up with 👍😉🇨🇮☘️Eire

[@terrymathis4213]

Saw someone use rain gutter leaf protection in the top of window. Don't really know if it works.

[@beaglemom63]

Great tip about the one magnet, Lulu, cheers! I made some with magnets all around, what a pain they are. 🤪

[@LulusWay64]

I will consider attaching the magnets permanently on the edges of the screen, but will use them as is for now!! 😊

[@lindabeard488]

Nice 👍 job.

[@clarasmith1873]

What size did ya order?

[@LulusWay64]

large. I think I'll be returning them. the low air flow is concerning me. I have a Plan C, we'll see how that works out!! 😊

[@KatherineAguilar-wh5sz]

Hi Lulu, I hope your day is going well. Thanks for sharing your new screens. Love the dancing. We all need to keep moving, I turned 63 today and feel great!

[@marylittle6988]

I made the best stealth window screens for my Promaster! Using sticky back Velcro tape….. I used the soft side and attached it to the inside window frame, that part stays in place and is not noticeable. Attach the hook side to the installed tape. Remove the backing from the Velcro and stick the screen to it….. automatic perfect fit! Trim and finish as you desire. It’s worked fabulously for me.🤗

[@malismom26]

I've seen folks wrap the seatbelt around the door handle and click it for added security ;)

[@MiZDove1]

I think the ones you made look great and the ones you bought look really good too. I wish they could fit on my promaster van but i haven’t been able to find ones that do. But at night, I need the window covering anyway. The top part of my window coverings folds back on the top and there is a screen, maybe the top 8” or so.

[@GottaBeThere2736]

Ingenius. And such needed information too. 😊 Thank you.

[@trishrobbins9942]

Some magnets have sharp edges. I wrapped mine in black duck tape to protect my screen and paint.

[@grumpyuncle.]

For people that worry about sleeping with a partially open window and a screen cover, consider sewing a couple small bells to the screen fabric. These could be small bells, similar to those used on cat collars.

[@MissLilasTeaRoom]

You're WONDER WOMAN!!!!! Love Ya, Miss Lila

[@LulusWay64]

oh Miss Lila!! thanks for writing!! 💕

[@donnamontewski103]

Hi Lulu! I have metal bars with a screen on the side door installed in the inside. I can open it with the van locked. Sleep well and not worry. I also travel with my dog and I can park in the shade and leave her with the side door open, locked in. I have a small fan on and water. I also have a sign that says ,,Happy campers “ for people not to worry about a dog inside. Never have any problems. She goes everywhere with me . Happy travels ❤️

[@donnamontewski103]

The bars were custom fit and would be very hard to break in. I can’t excess the van from outside on that side, but that’s okay because my bed is built in with storage on the passenger side and the kitchen and storage is on the opposite side. It’s a 2011 Transit Connect Van . I❤ It

[@JT-gx3ku]

I just got screens with the magnets in them and put them on the inside of the door frame, instead of outside and can close my door. I like the ones you made.

[@californiadreaming567]

I purchased Breeze Guard metal screens for dogs. Perfect. Put it in once and roll up and down your window. I would have my dog in the car with the windows rolled down and I would hear people say that poor dog in the car with the windows rolled up. They would walk over and say no the car has screens. You order them by telling them your car make & model plus the vin number. They fit perfectly in your car. My dog died and I sold that car but I am thinking of ordering them for my new car. We have had purse snatchers and other things. Very expensive but worth it for the safety factor. $375 for a pair

[@LulusWay64]

thanks for letting me know about those metal screens! 😊

[@vanomadcyclist3474]

I think both will be fine. I don’t think either look stealth, but then I don’t think you need to be stealth in most scenarios where you stay at night as you have permission. I wonder if you couldn’t make a screen that is on the inside only? I have the divider so my front windows are always closed. Perhaps you need a bad ass air horn?? 😂

[@LulusWay64]

HAHA!! I do have an airhorn, Luanne from AZ gave it to me!! I'm not talking stealth as far as being found out and trying to not getting kicked out. I want it to look stealth to passerbys, that it just looks like a parked locked van and not a van with the window down, that kind of stealth.

[@fourwheelcamper5491]

Keep your key fob handy for the panic button if anyone starts some monkey business in parking lots.

[@elizabethnelson92]

I don't think they are stealth enough to make a difference if someone is looking for a car to break in to. Not being a Debbie Downer...just giving an honest opinion. I think you did an excellent job with the ones you made.

[@dfros1957]

I have slept in Walmart parking lots with mt windows partially down. Never had a problem.😊

[@CeeBreeze-e3n]

Don't do it in Tacoma, WA!

[@JT-gx3ku]

An elderly couple got attacked in a rest stop during the day by a kid looking for money. The husband died. We have to be somewhat careful.

[@californiadreaming567]

Also you can buy small fans that run on batteries or camping fans. Don’t need venting

[@ucitisme]

Hi Lulu! I have been using ones like those new ones u just ordered but I find that not enough air is flowing through. So I am going to make some like the older ones u made. Keep up the great videos! Thank you 😊

[@LulusWay64]

that's what I'm afraid of, not enough air flow. I'm not trying to figure a way to work with the ones I have and make them better on the bottom edge. THANKS!!

[@kathibass9437]

I was surfing 🏄‍♀️ around the web looking for window ventilation options and look who pops up in my messages... Lulu! I have square windows in my 1990 Suburban Land Yacht. Thinking I'll try soffit vents. They have louvres to help if it rains. Keep Dancing! 💃💃💃

[@carolm8003]

Curious what it looks like with the door shut and the second layer unzipped. It might be more obvious looking than your first homemade option. Maybe a thick continuous magnetic strip could blend better than numerous round ones? Possibly white?

[@bernadette6618]

While on and in place, use masking tape to make a clean line and mask off the window, remove the screens, and put cardboard inside and spray paint the "car/white" areas white, so it is less obvious... then you will be more stealthy.

[@melodyjennings7782]

Genius!

[@LulusWay64]

great suggestion!!

[@raethibodeau9604]

Wow Lulu, I was pretty impressed with the screens you made. I do understand your concern about being stealth. I would probably use both depending on where I'm camping. I'm a girl that needs a breeze. If I had to choose one, probably the purchased one.

[@linnie52]

I have seen some women have like an expandable gate, maybe 4 to 6 inches high. You close the window and it goes in a groove to hold it there. I wonder if you could put screen on the inside of that and give you enough circulation for the fan. I dont think it would be quite as noticeable but I have never seen one in person, only on the meetups that the women show their hacks. Just another idea.

[@LulusWay64]

but I think those only work on straight square kind of windows, not the front window with that long slant to the mirror.

[@denisebrogan4364]

If you want a bit more security with the screens on and windows down, how bout a dog window vent. Used to keep dogs in. Will also keep arms out. 👍

[@gramcc514]

I just ordered the dog window vent. I already have the window screens that Lulu has.

[@seajayami]

Both are keepers- and I love the DIY spirit you show for these kinds of projects!

[@mimig6932]

I think if you have both windows opened plus you fan going you’ll be good.

[@Mitou-dh6ko]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@sallyrust]

keep both in your new trailer box

[@VFandTheKitKats]

The Pet Window Gate would give an added level of protection Amazon has several brands.

[@meinschatzi8978]

Could you use 3” magnetic roll in white? It would hide the screen on the outside of the window. You could use around the whole window. 3" x 50 Foot - White Warehouse Labels - Magnetic Rolls 1/Roll | Item # Y10154 $66.70/Roll

[@LulusWay64]

thanks for the good idea!! 😊

[@californiadreaming567]

Keep your current screens in case it’s a super hot night

[@tonybalz2726]

I used similiar covers on my cargo van, but I don't use it anymore. I installed windows with screens in it already. I hung small bells on the insde to alert me if someone move the screens, but the wind does mess with the bells sometimes. You must be from the south........my wife says "mira" too. 😂

[@kristiecolon542]

I like both. But maybe go with the new ones.

[@ServantOfJesusChrist777]

Could white spray paint the portions that go over the outside van parts. Just put cardboard underneath to paint, or draw a line with a bright color marking pen to know where to paint taking it OFF the vehicle.

[@LulusWay64]

that is a great idea!! I do have a Plan C for the screens but if that doesn't work out, I'll definitely try this idea!!! 😊

[@BittyBooBrown]

I slept in a Walmart parking lot with my windows down half way. I also had a Great Dane/German Shepherd mix with me and if some one would have tried to come in on me she would have had an arm for a souvenir lol. She is a sweet dog loves everyone but she knows when it is time to do her job. Plus if someone would have seen 160 lb dog come at them they wouldn't have stuck around lol. Only issue I had though she kept trying to steal my bed lol. We were camping in my Infiniti Qx56. So now I have a Dodge ram van if she wants to go camping with me. If just me I take the Infiniti. I had gotten me a little Chihuahua to go camping with me but he don't like car riding. So most of the time he stays home with his Daddy while mom goes camping. Now Ali wants to go camping with me and he is a Dane/Lab mix. So guess I am going to have to rotate who goes camping lol. I have such spoiled fur babies. If Bella the great Pyrenees decides she wants to start going lord help me lol.

[@LulusWay64]

sounds like you have a sweet clan of fur babies!! 😊

[@msplum3306]

I’m fairly new to ur channel, but have gone back and watched many of ur past videos, which I’m enjoying very much. I was wondering if you could give a recap for new views - how many children did you have? How long were you married? What happened to your husband? How old are you? I watched a video of you in a house, I think ur daughter purchased, but I’m confused. Do you still also live in ur big home or did you sell it? Are you sometimes w/ur daughter & sometimes in ur big home w/live in family? Where do you buy your adorable dresses, pants & that teal “V” slinky top genie type pants outfit- loved that outfit!!! I’m getting ready to try ur recipes for 2 weeks and see how I feel and if I lose any weight. I grew up camping all over the US, but not so sure I like the camper van idea for myself. Traveling alone isn’t for me. But I like watching your and others do it on KZbin. Ur a very interesting person.

[@LulusWay64]

oh, that's a lot of things to explain!! those are long stories!! some I have covered on my channel, some not. have some fun and watch my videos from the beginning, in order, and everything will make sense!! enjoy the food plan, you are sure to feel better!!! I'm so grateful you enjoy my videos, thanks for letting me know!! 😊

[@jenv7389]

Honestly, I don't think the new ones are significantly more stealthy, as that zipper outline catches my eye in the video. So, if the old ones are significantly better for airflow, I would try working to improve those. Maybe a bottom edge of white with the magnets on the back. I do not know what it is called, but what about they make political yard signs out of nowadays? It is lightweight, waterproof, and has to be reasonably priced.

[@LulusWay64]

@Lulu ❤ Can you please tell me what iPad tripod you use? Maybe put the link in the description….

[@LulusWay64]

I bought this to put my iPad on the tripod: amzn.to/3zuCyp2 it's not the tripod itself, but an attachment for it to hold the iPad. I must say it seems a little top heavy when I use it and I typically don't use it. I think it may be my tripod that isn't sturdy enough to hold the weight of the iPad. and I do have the largest iPad they make so it's a bit heavy.

[@lizp7248]

@LulusWay64 Thanks Lulu. Your healthy lifestyle is probably why you don't get back pain!

[@frnchblondtrvls]

No, I don’t use any magnets on my screens. Your windows are just a tad bigger than mine. Also, each screen is labeled for driver and passenger, in case it gets confusing for anyone. Lastly, I usually put it over the mirror first, then over the window. It doesn’t matter, it’s just the way I do it. 💜💜

A- trace the gap at top of open window B- make a cardboard template, mark for vent holes and lip to catch window as it rolls up. C- plexiglass cuts pretty easy w/jigsaw to size and use hole saw smaller than hand for vents, glue screen inside rivet or screw window lip catch This allows airflow, keeps you safer, is MUCH less noticeable. Also your rain guard can function properly.

One night, I was so desperate for ANY air moving on a still night (traveling from AZ-MO), that I cracked the travel trailer door about 5” with nothing but one regular bungee cord to keep it from flying open, 🐽🤣😅!

when ya need air, ya gotta have it!! 😊

[@donnamontewski103]

I installed metal bars and screen on the side door. I can have it locked from inside and door open 👍

[@SuperMjennings]

@@donnamontewski103 how’d you do that?

I would take your own pair with you, as well. I like the new ones because they look more professional but, if it's too hot, you can switch them. I would keep them on and drive with them, to get used to it. Neat idea.

I now have a third option that I like best!! stay tuned!! 😊
