Description

A mosquito net for the VW California that is mush easier to both store and mount than the original one supplied with the camper. Easily fits e.g. up against one of the sides in the drawer under the bench. No need to be flat on the bottom - under everything else in the drawer. Easy to mount in the window. Just slide the window open, insert the net against the alu. profile behind the driver seat and slide the window to the last lockable position. Done! In the current form it is not 100% mosquito proof, as there is a gap between the net and the window, see the pictures. I guess that it would be possible to stick a rubber strip on it for a tighter seal. A fair amount of assembly / gluing is required. The files only contain one of each part, but some of them are required in multiple copies: 4x Connector "bone" 2x Rear "stop block" (the ones with a platoeu at half height) 3x Front "stop block" 2x Top/bottom part of the inner frame See picture. Assembly instructions. I used glue clamps, just be careful to not glue them to the frame. 1) Assemble the outer / main frame, using the bones. I glued in the bones and also put glue generally in the gaps between the parts. Now it is already possible to test fit the frame in the window. The "stop block" can just about stay in place without glue. Do not glue them until the last step! Just use some blue tack if they need a bit of extra support. 2) Place the inner frame on top of a suitable net and mark, cut the net to size. 3) Fest-fit net and inner frame in the outer frame. I had to trim the ends of the inner frames slightly to make it all fit. 4) Fit the net in the outer frame, add glue, add inner frame on top. It is not necessary to glue it all at once. The inner frame is flexible enough that one end can be lifted for adding glue, even after the other end has already been glued in place. 5) When the entire frame is assembled the "stop blocks" can be glued in the notches / on the frame. Unfortunately I don't have many pictures of the fully assembled unit. The test fits in several of the picture are obviously without the net:).
