Yah, Dave (livelife123) and I both had these at CalX last October. They worked fine. I went to the local hardware store and bought what was basically a replacement roll of screen meant for a screen door (I think it was 48"x80") and about 6' of 1/2"-wide magnetic tape. Just remember to cut the screen patches large enough so that there's excess around the windows for the magnets to hold onto - I almost neglected to do that. Heh. I actually had enough screen leftover to cover the rear hatch area if I had wanted to leave that open. Given more time, I think I'd like to integrate the magnets fully into the screens so that they're one-piece units.
