For the outside, I used common hardware-store vinyl screen, a roll of 1" sticky-back magnetic strip (augmented by hot glue), and a handful of rare-earth magnets for the corners. Not pretty, but works just fine.

I'm not certain if I misunderstood the post - but I bought 3 of these with the idea I'd use them as DIY "Skreenz" over the driver, passenger and clamshell rear doors. They're too small to fit over any of those doors, even with the stretch from the elastic. So how exactly did you or anyone else who might've followed the advice of this post pull this off?A mosquito net made for infant buggies will cover the entire rear side door from the outside, allowing you to open or close the window as you choose during the night.

The thread title was "DIY screens for rear-door windows". The OP wanted to be able to open the pop-out windows.
Thinking outside the box, like McGuyver, my response was "will cover the entire rear side door from the outside".
How could this be misunderstood? :lol:

Didn't know I was writing to Hyundai owners, but it would probably work with the Accent, also. ;-)It was your accent.
You're right. In that thread I mis-stated the coverage of the front door. The 9915 does work with the front door. It fits snugly over the top and bottom and swing edge, but only reaches forward to the rear edge of the side view mirror's base. It lays flat enough that there's no appreciable gap there.Aha...pic is worth a thousand words
I didn't pay enough attention to the title and never read the original post, just picked up halfway into the thread. What also threw me - you had posted in an earlier thread that they fit over the front and rear doors:

no interference with either honda or aftermarket have had both with my screenzs.this is awesome.
off topic... for anyone with the actually skreenz for the front door.. do the window guards interfere with the skreenz fit?
